Primark (London) will open 18 new stores in the current financial year, including its first store in Poland, according to RLI magazine. The move is reportedly due to an increase in its first-quarter sales, which the retailer’s parent company Associated British Foods attributes to an increase in selling space.
U.K. sales were 4 percent above the same time last year, and revenues across the European Union rose 5.1 percent thanks to strong growth in France and Italy.
