The world's biggest Primark, located in Birmingham city centre, has become somewhat of a go-to spot for thrifty fashionistas up and down the UK. With five floors of budget buys, the store boasts three different cafés - including a Greggs - plus an impressive second- hand section and a 'gigantic Beauty Studio'.
Manchester currently holds the title of having the UK's biggest Primark which occupies a former John Lewis department store but this new branch will be even more impressive.
David Lewis opened his first store in Liverpool in 1856 trading in men's and boy's clothes. By 1870 he had expanded the store into a department store. His first store outside of Liverpool was this one on Market Street in Manchester which opened in 1877.
Located in Madrid, this Primark has 5 floors and is 12,000 square meters big. Although I've been made aware that the biggest Primark today is in Birmingham, before that opened, Madrid was known to be the largest in the world. I loved it!
Once open, the new Birmingham store will be Primark's biggest in the world. By comparison, Primark's current largest UK shop is in Manchester and spans across three floors of at around 155,000sq ft.
There are five Primark stores in Greater Manchester and each branch has different opening and closing times. The Primark on Market Street opens the earliest - from Monday to Saturday - at 8am. But if you're a late shopper, head to the Trafford Centre after work where Primark is open until 10pm.

Manchester Arndale is a large shopping centre in Manchester, England. It was constructed in phases between 1972 and 1979, at a cost of £100 million. Manchester Arndale is the largest of the chain of Arndale Centres built across the UK in the 1960s and 1970s.
According to the Centre for Cities Data Tool, Birmingham's population in 2020 was 2.56 million, marginally ahead of Manchester's 2.52 million. At other times, the wider metropolitan areas of the two cities are considered.
Despite these advantages Birmingham's economy has fallen behind Manchester, Leeds, and Glasgow in the last 20 years. Once well ahead, the West Midlands' economy is now last place behind Greater Manchester, West Yorkshire (Leeds), and South Western Scotland (Glasgow).
