Albert Jones (Textiles) Ltd of 51-53 Richmond Street, Manchester was created in 1963 as the result of a merger between Mounir Challah (known as Mo or Monty) of M Challah Export and Albert Brunt of Albert Jones. Shortly after the merger Albert died, leaving Mo to run the business. The company mainly traded to local shops and businesses however did export. During the 1960s, Mo established trade with a cousin in Japan, supplying textiles from Manchester. In the 1970s and 1980s, trade expanded to include business in Ecuador, South America and Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean. Mo ran the business until his death in 2002, keeping the name Albert Jones (Textiles) Ltd. His eldest son, Abdul Challah, who had worked for the company since 1975 took over the business following his father's death. He developed the business into a supplier of luxury fabrics, buying from cotton manufacturers in Lancashire and linen manufacturers in Northern Ireland. In 2023 he retired, with the Grade II Listed building at 51-53 Richmond Street from which he traded sold for redevelopment.
