Wade-Smith Comes To India Buildings.

India Buildings is decked out in all its Xmas glory again and Wade-Smith a name that has been absent from the High Street for seven years has opened a store here in Holts Arcade

At the time of updating November 2022 The building is closed and all the HMRC staff had been told not to come into work due to a massive leak. Which will have done great damage to the structure. This is what happens when greedy people who are only interested in money are in charge.

All the care and attention that was given to the building. The Architect of this historic structure Herbert Rowse will be definitely turning in his grave. 

What a complete and utter mess.

Hearing space was available in Holt’s Arcade Robert Wade-Smith, who has been in retailing for 29 years, decided this was an ideal showcase to promote the brand. http://www.liverpooldailypost.co.uk/ldpbusiness/business-local/2011/12/14/celebrated-liverpool-business-family-wade-smith-returns-to-retail-after-nearly-six-years-absence-92534-29949341/ 
Peter Elson of the Daily Post popped around to write up an article for the local paper.
I welcome the Wade-Smith name to India Buildings and hope they can help me to establish an alternative shopping experience that is both interesting and positive for the business quarter of Liverpool, that is a bit more than the uniformity of the High Street, that seems to hold all the same brands, in every other city. We are open Saturday's till Xmas Eve and we hope that the current owners will help in establishing a weekend trade that helps the building to be open for the public who can marvel at its grandeur and discover its historic past.
Update 5.11.19 WHAT A WASTE OF TIME THAT WAS. He was off as soon as his rent free ended.
