A planning application was submitted to Aberdeen City Council in January for new signage and LED lighting at the unit.

Now, renovation works have been completed and the first customers have been welcomed to the Bridge of Don shop.

It boasts an extended range of health and beauty products, including cosmetics, premium fragrances and Superdrug’s own-brand ranges.
