A NEW kebab shop from one of the world's biggest chains is set to open in Colchester High Street after plans were approved.

SBG Essex Limited has received permission from Colchester Council to install new signage and a ventilation system on an empty unit in High Street.

The revamped shop will be home to a branch of German Doner Kebab, which has 47 restaurants across the UK and many more across Europe.

The application does not state how many new jobs would be created by the new kebab shop or when it could open.

Changes to the building will be minimal with Essex Highways raising no objections.
