“The reception we’ve received as we’ve joined new communities in the US has been overwhelmingly positive, with lines of new customers waiting to meet us, so our team is so excited about the lineup of new stores we have to open this Summer,” said Kevin Tulip, President Primark US. “‘Primania’ is spreading from New York to New Jersey and beyond, and these three new stores will answer the demand we’ve had for our amazing fashion at amazing prices in new communities in both states.”

Primark has been expanding rapidly across the U.S., with the goal to scale to 60 stores by 2026. The retailer recently announced plans to further expand into the South, with aims for Texas in the future. Primark recently announced a new website, Primark.com, that allows customers to browse its product offering and check which products are available in their local store.
