Catella APAM, acting on behalf of the Greater Manchester Pension Fund, has completed six new retail lettings at Morgan Quarter in Cardiff. The agreements were concluded over an eight-week period in the fourth quarter of 2025 and cover a combined area of approximately 16,000 sq ft.
The new occupiers are De Montfort Fine Art, Kokoro, Amplifon, Pop Specs, Busby & Fox and Socktopus. The lettings span a range of retail and service uses.
Morgan Quarter comprises a series of historic shopping arcades connecting Cardiff’s main retail streets. Catella APAM’s asset management approach has focused on defining different retail zones within the scheme, with varied tenant profiles intended to serve a broad customer base.
Rhys Williams, Associate Director at Catella APAM, said the recent leasing activity reflects continued retailer interest in central Cardiff and the implementation of the asset management strategy at Morgan Quarter.
Advisory services were provided by Savills. According to Rob Palmer, Director in the firm’s retail agency team in Bristol, the recent openings highlight the range of retail, service and food concepts represented at the scheme.
The transactions form part of Catella APAM’s ongoing management strategy for Morgan Quarter, which is focused on tenant mix, customer experience and the long-term performance of the asset.
