"Entering the state of Michigan is an exciting step for us at Primark and we're already feeling the love – or Primania – from the community as we build our store team and educate those new to the brand on all we offer," President of Primark U.S. Kevin Tulip said. "The folks in and around The Motor City have welcomed us with open arms and we can't wait to return the favor as we gear up for opening day!"
The brand is working to make more sustainable clothing by making it last longer and supporting its workers with living wages. The retailer is planning to make all of its clothes from recycled or more sustainably sourced materials by 2030.
