Pokusevski’s Deli originally based in Heaton Moor has said that it will create at least ten new jobs as it takes a 25 year lease on a 1300 square foot property in MediaCityUK.
Pokusevski’s, which has a deli and licensed café on Shaw Road and also runs a concession at Northern Lawn Tennis Club, intends to open its flagship property in December 2013, and is looking to hire new staff to aid the expansion.
Founded by Zoran Pokusevski, a former PhD chemical engineer, the original Pokusevski’s opened in 2003. The new Pokusevski’s MediaCityUK deli and bar is located next to Costa Coffee, opposite the side entrance to The Studios and marks the first step outside of Heaton Moor for the company.
Zoran said
“For the last ten years we have steadily grown our business and our brand in Heaton Moor and South Manchester. Now it is time to expand into new areas. MediaCityUK is a really exciting place to be opening for business. The new space is bigger than anything we’ve operated before, but I am confident that our philosophy and approach will attract customers just as it has done before.”
Pokusevski’s was advised on the lease by Jean Walker, SME Business Services partner at SAS Daniels LLP. He said:
“We have worked with Jean for many years, and her advice has always been exactly what we need. When growing a business, particularly in the last couple of years, you need good support and people you can call on who understand your issues. Jean certainly knows that, and we are delighted with the legal guidance she gave us on the lease.”

“After the last few years, it is great to see a small business looking to
expand. We are delighted to have helped Zoran and the team to take
advantage of the new confidence people are starting to feel, and I believe
that their new flagship deli will be a great success in MediaCityUK.”
Addleshaw Goddard advised Peel Media the owners of MediaCityUK.
Mark Robinson, Property Executive for MediaCityUK said
“We are now home to over 8,000 people, so we’re always looking to attract businesses that can bring an added dimension to our ever-evolving city. Pokusevski’s is a brand with a great track record that offers something a little bit different, and we are delighted they‘ve chosen MediaCityUK for the first foray out of Heaton Moor”.
Pokusevski’s deli and bar will be open on Monday to Friday from 7.00am – 11.00pm and on Saturday and Sunday from 8.00am to 10.00pm. For further information about Pokusevski’s Deli visit www.pokusevskis.com.
