Primark, which currently offers Click & Collect at 57 stores, will expand the collection service further this Autumn enabling shoppers in over half of its UK sites to pick-up orders before Christmas.
The expansion means the home of the first ever Primark, Derby, and the world’s largest Primark in Birmingham will now offer Click & Collect.
Alongside the next wave of stores, the range available on the collection service has been expanded to now include menswear and homeware alongside women’s and kidswear.
“It’s been fifty years since we first opened our doors in Derby to bring affordable fashion to the British high street and expanding Click & Collect is another way we are giving people more reasons to visit their local high street and Primark,” said Kari Rodgers, UK retail director at Primark.
“We know our customers love its convenience and the opportunity to access our wider ranges typically only found in larger stores. We’re thrilled to reveal the new stores to offer the service and extend access to our ranges even further before the busy Christmas shopping period begins.”
It was announced in February that Primark plans to invest £100mn in its UK stores this year, creating 700 jobs as a result of new stores and extensions, as it marks 50 years since opening.
Today, the retailer employs more than 30,000 people in the UK and has 192 stores across the nation’s cities and town centres, as well as shopping centres and retail parks.
Throughout September and October, the retailer is hosting pre-loved pop-ups, enabling customers to exchange second-hand and vintage clothing in store.
Run in partnership with circular fashion platform Verte, the events will allow ‘swappers’ to bring up to five items of adult clothing, bags, hats or scarves in good condition.
