Perth and Kinross Council has officially launched a bold, £530 million Investment Prospectus at the UK Real Estate Investment & Infrastructure Forum (UKREiiF) 2025 in Leeds. The prospectus presents a compelling vision for sustainable, long-term growth across the region, targeting a high-profile audience of government representatives, private investors, developers, and funding bodies.
The prospectus outlines eight transformative projects spanning a 15-year period from 2025 to 2040. These opportunities range from market-ready initiatives to longer-term investor-led partnerships across key sectors, including energy and net zero, the circular economy, food and drink, light industrial, travel and logistics, leisure and retail, and various accommodation options for tourism and residential use.
Featured investments in the prospectus include:
• Eco Innovation Park at Perth West
• Perth City Heat Network
• Strategic Energy Partnership
• Advanced Plastics Sorting and Upcycling Facility
• Binn Eco Park
• Northfield Business Park
• Cultural Quarter (Perth City Centre) Regeneration Project
• Mill Quarter (Perth City Centre) Regeneration Project
Perth & Kinross Council Leader Councillor Grant Laing highlighted the region's commitment to economic development: "Over the past six years, Perth and Kinross has demonstrated its commitment to building a modern, resilient, and inclusive economy through an impressive £600 million public investment programme. This has supported essential infrastructure, cultural development, and growth in key economic sectors."
Councillor Laing added that the new Investment Prospectus aims to build on these strong foundations, providing an exciting platform for both domestic and international investor and developer-led partnerships. "I believe the diversity and ambition of the projects on offer present a compelling case for doing business in Perth and Kinross. Alongside transformative, clean growth opportunities directly impacting our net zero ambitions, there are also traditional, property-based propositions designed to encourage and support existing business relocation into the area," he stated.
This £530 million proposition complements the Council's existing £600 million-plus investment in infrastructure, key sectors, and the arts, creating a powerful springboard for future growth and reinforcing Perth & Kinross's ambitions to lead in sustainability and clean economic growth.
