Parc Trostre is a retail park in Llanelli, Carmarthenshire, Wales.

The first phase of the development occurred in 1988, consisting of stores such as Tesco. [1] In September 2008, the growing popularity of the retail park led Llanelli Town Council to express concern at the increasing adverse impact which the continued expansion of Parc Trostre is having on Llanelli town centre.
