Primark opened two new states in six days. Augusta is still waiting.
Primark added two states to its U.S. map in six days, then stalled in Augusta. The value retailer opened its first Minnesota store on Sept. 3 at Mall of America in Bloomington, close to 35,000 square feet stocked with Minnesota Vikings gear through the chain's NFL partnership. That store was its 46th in the country and put Primark in 15 states. Georgia came five days later. Doors opened at 11 a.m. on Sept. 8 at Sugarloaf Mills in Lawrenceville, northeast of Atlanta, with more than 26,000 square feet of selling space and Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta Hawks apparel starting at $16. That made 47 U.S. stores.
