Duncan and Todd adds two practices in takeover

This has led to it being the largest privately-owned optician in Scotland

Duncan and Todd has acquired the Spectacle Company, which had sites in Stonehaven and Montrose, and increased its total number of optical practices to 43.

The group said the addition of new practices consolidated its position as the largest privately-owned optician and hearing care provider in Scotland.

Frances Rus, managing director at Duncan and Todd, said: ‘We are pleased to have added The Spectacle Company to our family of opticians. As a fellow long-established independent optometrist who is committed to providing a high quality and personal service to its local communities, it was a great fit for us.’

The sites will operate as Duncan and Todd practices and 13 members of staff will stay in their roles, while Spectacle Company directors Graeme and Anne Shand will retire.
