Primark is plotting to open a further 50 stores in the US within the next five years as it bets on strong sales resurgence post-Covid.
The move comes as part of a wider plan to open over 100 stores worldwide in the same period, taking the fast fashion retailer’s high street offering from 398 bricks-and-mortar locations to 530.
Primark opened its first store in Boston six years ago and plans to go from 13 to 60 outlets over the reported period, with most of its stores currently on the east cost.
It has signed five new leases within the New York region, which include Long Island, Brooklyn and Albany.
