Scotmid was mainly a central belt retailer until fairly recently. It expanded when it took over Morning, Noon and Night stores, which brought Scotmid into this area. The shop in the neighbouring village was previously a Spar and seems to have been acquired separately.
When my dad first moved to Nairn (before Sainsbury's opened) he would grumble that all four supermarkets sold Coop-branded goods; there was the original High Street Coop, Scotmid, the larger ex Presto/Safeway/Somerfield store and on the other side of town there was a former Alldays. I suppose you could call it a Co-opoly!
