There are very few national chains in Lerwick, and nearly all the shops on Commercial Street are independent locally-run businesses, but this building has a different history: it was a Templeton supermarket, then it was taken over by Presto before they moved to an 'out-of-town' site (which is now a Tesco - see Image), and now, as can be seen, it belongs to the Boots chain.
