Cutting the ribbon to open the first three shops, Mr Davies said: "Any concept that is innovative in retailing is essential."

The first three tenants of PopUp Moreton share a romantic theme for the run-up to Valentine's Day and have already nicknamed themselves 'The One-Stop Love Shop'.

They are Lynette Berry, of dating company Cherrypick Private Client Introductions, Rosablue's Penny Menato and Julia Lucas, of Objets d'Amour.
