McEwens
McEwens (originally known as James McEwen & Co.) was a department store located in the Scottish city of Perth. Specialising in homeware, it was established in March 1868, and was in business for nearly 150 years. It closed in March 2016, along with its branches in Oban and Ballater, with the loss of over 100 jobs. Its store location, at 56 St John Street, was taken over in 2017 by Beales, an English department-store chain, but that has also since closed.
McEwens had a second location in Perth, at 29–37 South Street, a short distance from the St John's Street location.
The store's outbuildings, on Perth's Watergate, were proposed for demolition in 2019, to be replaced by housing.
