The company said all products are available at its signature affordable prices.
Notably, the store introduces self-checkout options for faster and easier transactions.
Primark said it remains committed to sustainability, with 55% of its clothing currently made from recycled or sustainable materials. The company aims to reach 100% in this metric by 2030.
Building on its commitment to value, Primark recently reduced prices on hundreds of its essential children’s clothing items and accessories.
This move helps families manage rising costs as the hotter, mid-year period approaches.
Paolo Chiavarino, trade councillor of Municipality of Turin, said: “We value the offer of products made with a high percentage of recycled materials or made through more sustainable sources, combined with an offer that allows purchasing accessibility for a vast area of the population: this sensitivity is in line with the respect for the planet’s resources and at the same time acts as a concrete response to the need for families to save in a period characterised by rising prices.”
Primark’s expansion in Italy demonstrates its dedication to the market and its vision of providing trendy, sustainable fashion at affordable prices.
