Detective Inspector Tracey Martin said: “Burglaries and theft from a business is not a victimless crime as they have a huge impact on the community in many ways, especially small businesses trying to make an honest living.
"We are determined to find the offender so that other businesses are not targeted in future."
She added: “I am appealing for the man featured in these images, or anyone who recognises him to come forward. We believe he could hold information that could be vital to our continuing enquiries.
“We also encourage people to come forward if you know anything about the incident which will help with our investigation.”
