Scotmid has served Scottish communities fresh & locally sourced products for over 160 years.

Competition time!! The Scotmid team are looking to expand our network on Bluesky so we are giving away £20 to spend in your local store to one lucky person. All you need to do is repost this and reply with your local store! Competition ends this friday.

Edinburgh's Living Streets & residents have consistently called for wider pavements along the project since 2019. While there are lots of examples down Leith Walk, the stretch outside Scotmid at Pilrig can & must be rectified & easiest to justify. Hopeful T&E cttee backs our call tomorrow 👇

1.1.5 That NB – 372 Leith Walk to 376 Leith Walk was not used as a bin hub within the
communal bin review and remains as uncontrolled parking, and requests that
officers explore the removal of this bay to allow a wider pavement and on-
carriageway loading as part of the remedial works.A photograph of a narrow pavement outside a cash machine on Leith Walk, just south of Pilrig Street.
