Primark US president Kevin Tulip said: “Primark has been in the US since we opened in Boston in 2015, but when I look back at the past year, I’m incredibly proud of the exponential growth we’ve achieved.
“This was never about opening as many stores as quickly as possible. It was about opening in the right locations, with the right store layout and product offering, for the communities we are entering. We learned a lot in those early years about what sparks “Primania” for US shoppers and we are finding that our value pricing across women’s, men’s, kids, home and gifts have kept American families coming back to us time and time again.”
Last month, Primark revealed plans to open a 37,000ft² store in the US state of Illinois.
