Popular doughnut company Krispy Kreme is eyeing up its first dedicated Inverness outlet.

A planning application lodged with Highland Council for the erection of fascia and projecting signs at 60 High Street in Inverness shows the name of the business above the door.

If given the go-ahead, it looks set to fill vacant premises next to Market Brae Steps, which were formerly used by Commercial Bank of Scotland.

The projecting sign would be the familiar green, white and red 'bow tie' shape.

The application, from Callander-based agent WD Harley, states its intention to have the signage in place for at least 15 years.

Earlier this week it emerged Krispy Kreme was advertising for a new full-time position as retail store manager for "a brand new Krispy Kreme store in the centre of Inverness".

The familiar green, white and red 'bow tie' shape isn't set to be above the door, instead it will be a projecting sign, if approved by Highland Council.

Although some supermarkets in the Highland capital are storing a selection of the tasty treats, the closest outlets are located in Aberdeen.

This would be the first outlet in the region.

It is believed that a new counter will open at Tesco Extra at Inshes Retail Park next week, and potentially a new retail point at Asda in Ivanhoe Avenue where it is understood "coming soon" signs have been installed.

Krispy Kreme has been contacted for comment.
