JD Sports has created 100 new jobs through the opening of an upsized store at Leicester’s Fosse Park.

The sportswear retailer previously operated a shop at Fosse Park North, but has now moved to a site that it is double the size at the retail park’s new ‘West’ development.

Spanning over 12,000 square feet, the new shop opened to the public at the weekend.

JD will continue to operate multiple stores in Leicester including a unit in the Highcross shopping centre.
