A major north London kosher supermarket has held its official reopening more than a year after a fire destroyed 50 per cent of the building.

Kosher Kingdom in Golders Green celebrated its return to business with live music, clowns, wine-tasting and free refreshments.

Manager David Rokach said the store now stocked hundreds of extra products, including more health and American items. An electrical fault caused the blaze, which was tackled by over 50 firefighters.
