Let’s hope he doesn’t go out of business and the growers move back in!
A brand-new tyre shop is set to open at a former car dealership in Northampton, which was most recently used as a massive cannabis farm.
The former Hamilton Car Sales dealership in Kingsley Park Terrace is set to reopen as ‘Abbas Tyres’ in early March.
Nas Qalandari, aged 27, owner of Abbas Tyres, says the family-run business was looking to expand and saw this unit as a “gold mine”.
He said: “I’m really, really happy and can’t wait for this to open. Compared to our garage now, this is nine times bigger.

“We’ve been wanting to expand for a long time. Then this came through unexpectedly. The location is perfect, on a main street. There’s traffic flow all the time. For us, this is like a gold mine. It’s a great opportunity for us.
