Market Quarter Launch

A very warm welcome to the Aberdare Market Quarter’s brand-new website. The Market Hall, Market Arcade and Market Street are undergoing a makeover with the launch of a new brand design, website and social media presence. This is soon to be followed with new internal and external signage and other branded items such as shopping bags and banners.


The Market Quarter consists entirely of local family-owned independent traders offering a huge selection of products at great quality and great value. There’s never been a more important time to “Shop Local” and support all these small businesses. We hope that having explored our new website you will soon pay us a visit. We look forward to seeing you.


We would like to thank Jack Kinnerly at Website Sorted and Gareth Pugh at Plaingraffic – local based companies - for their outstanding help and support in our new branding activity. Also, the Market Tenants Association for their support and Paul Webber, a trader in the Market Hall, for undertaking the photography supporting the site. Diolch yn fawr.

On Friday 27th at 10am, children from Aberdare Town Church Primary School will be handing out daffodils to customers as part of the `Market's Random Acts of Kind Welshness scheme. From Welsh cakes to love-spoons, from Welsh costumes to miner's lamps, from Welsh foods and produce to Welsh coffee, and a wide range of genuine "Made in Wales" products; all are on offer from the independent businesses at the Market Quarter who extend a very warm welcome to everyone. Come and join us for a great celebration of all things Welsh, and pick up some bargains at the same time. We look forward to seeing you. See our facebook page for more details. Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus!
