Primark announces new opening coming to Manchester this summer in a store first

The new store will be the first of its kind in Great Britain

Primark has announced that a brand new style of store will be coming to Greater Manchester this summer.

The high-street fashion and homeware retailer has revealed that its first standalone Home store in Great Britain will be opening at Trafford Palazzo in the coming months.

This new store will bring together a range of Primark’s homeware selections all under one roof, making shopping more convenient for customers.

Shoppers will be able to discover an expanded range of homeware and lifestyle essentials, including cotton bedding and towels, soft furnishings, small furniture and quirky ceramics.

The new store will also feature Primark’s recently launched Edit, which is designed to include an elevated collection of home products. This range will also feature alongside a Travel Shop in the store, selling both stylish and practical travel essentials.

Mark Whittaker, Managing Director at Peel Retail and Leisure, said: “The opening of Primark Home at Trafford Palazzo, in the heart of TraffordCity, is an incredibly exciting moment for us. Not only because we are the first destination in Great Britain to do so, but the opening is going to be adding a leading concept to our already unique mixture of immersive shopping and leisure experiences.

“Primark Home will have something for everyone, and we look forward to the store opening in summer.”

The new store coming to Trafford Palazzo follows on from the opening of Primark’s concept homeware store in Belfast earlier in the year.

This will make Primark Home at Trafford Palazzo the retailer’s first store of this kind in Great Britain.

Paul Baldwin, Trading Director for Home at Primark said: “Our mission is simple: to make it easy for everyone to create a home they love, without breaking the bank.

“Customer reaction to our first Primark Home store in Belfast has been really positive, and we can’t wait to bring this exciting new concept to Great Britain later this summer.

“Homes have become more than just places to live, they’re an extension of our personalities, so whether it’s soft furnishings, statement tableware, or smart storage solutions you’re after, our range has something for every style and budget.”

This announcement comes after Primark also announced it would be extending its Click and Collect services throughout its stores in Great Britain.

The store will join a range of other Primark stores in Manchester, including its main Trafford Palazzo store.
