“We are also asking our customers to keep up the support and spirit they showed last year, particularly if queuing outside or in-store.”
On the subject of reopening amid the Prime Minister’s Monday announcement, Mr Marchant said: “It’s great to be back.
“Our stores are fully stocked with fresh new season fashion, all at Primark’s famously amazing prices.
“Between our great value, everyday must-haves and hot new season trend collections, we’ve got everything our customers have been waiting for.”
