About Mylahore

Our menu is famously diverse, with something for everyone, and we just love offering up tastes of adventure as well as culinary strolls down memory lane. So in a hectic world, why not slow down and savour the moment with us, as we bring you flavours from a very colourful journey…

MyLahore is rooted in Yorkshire in a world of small kitchens yet huge hearts, where families tuck into everything from samosas to shepherd’s pie, and karahis to cornflake tarts. It’s a very British Asian story that just had to be shared!

We love to bring people together around great food and vibrant, fulfilling experiences. We’re inspired to build on the pioneering migrant spirit of those that journeyed before us, and pass on something positive to those that come after us.

About Sekhon Group

Sekhon Group loves to bring back to life disused buildings, giving them a useful purpose once again. We have identified profitable development opportunities where others have failed.

Sekhon Group has a proven track record of delivering high quality apartments; converting significant properties into beautiful luxury apartments. This has been achieved using personal and family resources but also employing capital from business colleagues which demonstrates the flexibility and skill-set to work with other business entrepreneurs. 

We have rarely disposed of any assets due to the desire to build equity to fuel the future development projects. Recently we have negotiated deals to raise capital through selling 66 apartments in one transaction and another 30 apartments in another, to long term private investors.

About SKA Developments

A FAMILY RUN BUSINESS WITH OVER 40 YEARS EXPERIENCE, DEDICATED TO SPACES THAT STAND OUT

SKA Developments has strong ties to Huddersfield, Kirklees and Yorkshire, with its roots firmly established in the historic textile trade.

Established more than forty years ago, the textile side of the business was marked by innovation, quality and respect – qualities that have transferred through generations, to create inspiring buildings as part of SKA Developments.

The business is still family owned and run, with its directors focusing on creating quality schemes. Since 2012, the business has brought a number of high-quality projects to market and has set out ambitious plans to redevelop some of Yorkshire’s most historic industrial sites, such as Drummond Mill in Bradford, the Waterfront Quarter in Huddersfield, and the Cooperative building in the town centre.
