Marketing Intelligence for Central Local Businesses

Central, in Cardiff, Wales, falls under postcode district CF10, near Butetown, East Moors and Blackweir. Cardiff is known as the 'City of Arcades' for having the biggest concentration of Victorian, Edwardian and modern indoor shopping arcades in Britain, starting with the Royal Arcade in 1858 after a slum house was cleared to make way for it. Castle Arcade, opened in 1887 opposite Cardiff Castle, is Grade II* listed as the finest of the city's Victorian arcades, and around 80% of the shops across all of Cardiff's arcades today are independent businesses.

ONS recorded 12,120 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area. FOR Cardiff, the city centre's Business Improvement District, was voted for by businesses in 2016 and now represents more than 750 city centre businesses funding shared improvements.

Workers in Cardiff produced £39.1 of economic value for every hour worked in 2023 (ONS). Local spending power like that is exactly the audience marketing intelligence is built to reach.
