On September 29th, all the traders within The Castle Emporium were given one month's notice to leave the building after many years of developing our community of indies and making a name for ourselves in Cardiff. The building has been signed over to a new development company who will be turning it into a micro-brewery (just what we need!) bringing the results of all our hard work, time, energy and money over the years to an abrupt end. We're gutted about having to leave the Emporium building but we're excited to make new homes and keep our businesses alive and kicking! The money raised here will be split equally between the current traders at TCE - @headsabovethewaves @theshogallery @the_barber_room_cardiff @tropigaz @shelflifecdf @frankincense_andpurr to help fund the costs of moving to new premises. Keep an eye out on our social media page, and the pages of all the traders, to see where the next steps lead us and if you can support us with a few ££, a share or even some kind words of encouragement, all your help is *hugely* appreciated. (link in bio) Thank you for your loyal support and solidarity through all of this, we couldn't keep going without the ongoing encouragement and faith in the importance of shopping small and local that our wonderful community - you lot! - bring through the doors every day. We're not closing down and we're not shutting up shop, so watch this space!  Big love, Team TCE x

Come shop indie while you still can! 🤘🔥 We are open 10-5:30 (check with individual shops) Thanks for all the love and kindness❤️ you guys rule! reminder, our shops are NOT closing down, we are all RELOCATING.. so don't wait, there will be no closing down sale! 😜 Our indies need your full support now more than ever! come in and say hi x

We've received some shocking and awful news today. After 7 years of housing and supporting local independent businesses in The Castle Emporium our building on Womanby Street is sadly being forced to close. We've been given 30 days notice to leave. We are now faced with having to find an alternative space whilst under the pressure of leading up to our busiest time of year, Christmas. Your support over the next 30 days will mean the world to us. Your help is needed now more than ever so please shop with us, use our services, shout us out! We need all the help we can get to find a new home. Please share this and help us find a new home for The Castle Emporium ❤️
