Primark opens at Walden Galleria in Buffalo, New York
International value fashion retail giant Primark
The 34,000-square-foot store marks the first Primark store in in the western region, and is expected to serve the greater Buffalo community as well as those in neighboring Canada. It will house styles across womenswear, menswear and kidswear, plus beauty, homeware and accessories.
As part of its opening festivities, it will host a grand opening tailgate party in the mall starting Thursday through Saturday, with games such as cornhole and Jenga, local DJ Lil Gab spinning tracks, and The Cheesy Chick food truck, offering local treats. There will also be free giveaways to participating shoppers.
Primark has been expanding rapidly across the U.S. and currently operates stores in seven states. It now operates six New York stores and a total of 17 stores in the United States, as part of Primark’s growth plan to reach 60 stores in the U.S. by 2026.
“‘Primania’ is spreading across the U.S., as shoppers discover our unbeatable combination of value, quality, and style,” said Kevin Tulip, president Primark US.
“We are thrilled to continue our expansion in New York with this store in Buffalo, it’s an amazing community that understands the importance of one of Primark’s core values – being a good neighbor. We’ve seen this already in the team we’ve hired and the warm welcome we’ve received from shoppers eagerly anticipating our arrival. We can’t wait to open our doors and show Buffalonians Primark’s unique, value-driven offering of fashion and essentials for the whole family.”
