Tesco taps Clark Contracts for new Pitlochry supermarket as trans family stories head to festival stage

Clark Contracts has been appointed main contractor to build a new Tesco supermarket in Pitlochry for Dundee-based developer West Ranga Property Group. The project includes a 26,900-square-foot store near the junction of Perth Road and Bridge Road, with internal fit-out. Clark Contracts director Michael Scanlan said the firm was “pleased” to be working on the site, while West Ranga managing director Jamie Parratt called it a “best-in-class retail development” and said the group had “four schemes currently under construction in 2025” and “a further six site starts projected for 2026”, largely using pre-let or pre-sold design-and-build projects, where an occupier is lined up early and one contractor handles design and construction.
