A supermarket giant has revealed it is still interested in opening a new store in Perth.
Lidl has indicated it is looking for a site in the north of the city.
The company published its annual list of key areas across the UK where it is interested in acquiring sites for potential store development, with Perth one of 58 Scottish locations featured.
The PA revealed last year that the company was looking for a second site in the Fair City.
Perth already has a Lidl at Riggs Road while work is ongoing to build one in Blairgowrie.
The list of desirable locations for new stores is aimed at landowners and freeholders with suitable sites who are interested in exploring opportunities with Lidl.
The discounter is seeking prominent sites, which are easily accessible, and have a strong pedestrian or traffic flow, whilst it is also interested in mixed-use sites.
Ross Millar, Lidl’s regional director for Scotland, said: “We want to continue to reach more shoppers across Scotland and our site requirements brochure is a testament of that.
“There are towns that will be new for Lidl and in some places, the potential to even double our sites. Each new store will have quality food and drink at great prices including produce from over 60 Scottish suppliers.
“We look forward to opening new stores in the coming months and years and becoming part of local communities.”
As part of its ongoing plans, Lidl has committed to investing £1.3 billion in its store expansion over 2021 and 2022.
