The planning application for a new market hall, a cinema and other leisure facilities at the Western end of Freshney Place was approved at the Planning Committee in February 2023.
Morgan Sindall have been appointed to take the scheme forward.
The leisure development will house a new cinema, with local and regional operator Parkway Entertainment Group coming in as an anchor tenant and pledging to provide a great venue to complement its offer in Cleethorpes.
The plans also feature a remodelled entrance to the centre, which will be lined with units for leisure and eateries, and an entrance to a new and transformed Market Hall.
Work to deliver the scheme is likely to begin in late summer 2023, initially stripping out vacant units before demolishing the former BHS building in early 2024 to make way for the new market hall.
The market will continue to operate from its current base until the new market has been built.
