Marketing Intelligence for Penarth Flats Local Businesses
Penarth Flats is one of Cardiff's local areas, within postcode district CF11, bordering Penarth Moors, Leckwith and Grangetown. 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's latest snapshot (March 2026) 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.
The employment rate in Cardiff was 74.6% in 2023 (ONS). That's the local workforce and customer base marketing intelligence is competing to reach.
