Ben Davies, surveyor within the Retail Department comments, “This new high quality store will help to lift to the town centre retail offering and is a vote of confidence in the town from a retailer who has been successful in identifying locations with growth potential. Merthyr Tydfil has traditionally faced out-of-town competition from Cyfarthfa Retail Park, but is undergoing various regeneration works including plans for a new transport hub and the restoration of the Grade II listed YMCA building to bring it back into commercial use. The unit is in a pedestrianised area close to Beacons Place and St Tydfil Shopping Centre, with occupiers in close proximity including EE, HSBC, Barclays Bank, O2 and Poundworld.”
