Join me, a small-town Essex girl, on an exciting trip to Manchester to explore the second biggest Primark in the UK – and trust me, it did NOT disappoint! 😍 Spanning three massive floors, I spent over an hour and a half wandering around and even got lost multiple times. This store is on another level!
Welcome to the world's biggest Primark, and our newest flagship store, located in the heart of Birmingham. In fact, this store is SO big that we won a Guinness World Record for it, and it's now officially the largest fashion retail store in the world!
1974 – Our first store in England opens in Derby. Today, we have 190+ stores across the UK, our largest market. 2006 – Hola España! our first store opens in Madrid, Spain where we now operate 60+ stores.
Nestled in the heart of Birmingham, the UK's largest Primark is a shopping haven like no other. This colossal store spans five floors and offers an extensive selection of clothing, accessories, and homeware, making it a must-visit destination for fashion enthusiasts and bargain hunters alike.
The store spans 1,100,000 square feet (100,000 m2) of selling space, making it the largest department store in Europe and one of the largest in the world. Harrods is one of the most famous department stores worldwide, attracting 15 million visitors annually as of 2023.

I know that you can work in Primark from the age of 16, but how old do you need to be to work as a stockroom retail assistant? 18 to work in the stockroom however at 16 you can go into the stockroom and get stock as long as you don't go into the baler...
We sell a lot of items. This means we're able to make savings from buying in bulk for all our stores. We do very little advertising. We design clothes that offer the latest trend but we don't use expensive hangers, tags or labels.
Primark sells bargain-priced clothes. Its products may not exactly be known for their durability, but its owner, Associated British Foods (LSE: ABF) (AB Foods), has endured for decades. And like its clothes, AB Foods' shares look very cheap.
Supercentres are our largest stores offering our extended range across food, George and non-food, often supported by partnership offers and an extended range of services such as banks, photo printing specialists and dry cleaners. Milton Keynes is our largest store measuring more than 100,000 sq. ft.
Retail. In April 2019, the largest Primark store in the world opened in Birmingham, the second largest city in the United Kingdom. It has 5 floors, covering approximately 15,000sqm (160,000sqft), and includes the first café with an official Disney license (excluding its resorts and cruise ships).
Walmart's presence in the UK and London has diminished since the Asda buyout by the Issa brothers. But for over 20 years Walmart did operate the Asda supermarket chain in London and the UK as part of their network of international holdings.
Tesco has opened up a new-look food to go store in London's Villiers Street, which is the grocer's smallest ever standalone shop at 550 sq ft. Retail Week went to check out the new store. A look inside Tesco's new-look food to go store in Villiers Street, London.
However, they began using the name Primark to avoid a legal clash with the US retailer JC Penney. So, the store kept the original name, Penneys, in all of the Irish stores — but for every other store, they went with Primark. People in the UK may think they're right, but we were first on this one!
After first opening its doors in Hamilton, Scotland, back in August 1975, Primark currently operates 21 stores across Scotland's towns, city centres and retail parks, employing over 2,637 retail colleagues mark its 50th anniversary.
Today, Penneys employs thousands of people at its Irish stores – and in the eyes of many Dubliners, Primark will always be Penneys. The Penney name could not travel to Britain as the American retailer, J. C. Penney, had the right to use the name in the region.
