Primark

At Primark how we ship our product matters given that we source from multiple markets across the world. Most of our shipping is by sea which keeps our prices affordable for our customers. It also has lower impact on the environment compared to air freight and that’s really important to us.  But we can’t stop there and we’re pleased to say that through our shipping partner A.P. Moller - Maersk we have started to use green fuel alternatives, such as biofuel, in our shipping. Daniel Roe, our Climate Change Programme Senior Manager, tells us how lower-impact fuels are helping to reduce our carbon footprint across our value chain.  To find out more read here : https://lnkd.in/eYn63Nty

Happy World Cotton Day!    Cotton is more than just a fibre - it’s a lifeline for millions of people around the world. At Primark, cotton is the main natural fibre we use, and it's in so many of our products, from pyjamas and t-shirts, to bedding and towels. We're proud of our long-standing commitment that 100% of the cotton in our clothes will be organic, recycled, or sourced from our Primark Cotton Project by 2027.   For more than 10 years, we've worked with cotton farmers in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh to reduce their use of water, chemical fertilisers, and pesticides, while also teaching new skills like seed selection, land preparation, sowing, crop management, and harvesting. By 2030, all farmers in our Primark Cotton Project will adopt regenerative practices that promote soil health and biodiversity. 🌾🌳   And did you know? Over 80% of our Primark Cotton Project farmers are women! 💪👩🌾   You can meet some of the amazing farmers behind the fibre here: https://lnkd.in/gnTtU-Pp

Durability shouldn’t be a luxury and today, we’re proud to launch the Primark Durability Framework - a new set of guidelines that sets the bar for how we extend the life of clothing. Inspired by research from WRAP, Hubbub and the School of Design - University of Leeds, we’re proving that affordability and durability can go hand-in-hand. Our hope is that this initiative leads the way across the fashion industry, ensuring that people everywhere can love and wear their clothes for longer.

This year’s ‘We’re with you’ Breast Cancer Awareness campaign spotlights the journeys of five women across five countries who have been affected by breast cancer. Through self-directed videos and photographs which are featured in the Primark windows of over 450 stores globally and across its digital channels, real women share their stories and experiences, highlighting the importance of the support they received.     We’re so proud to donate over £1 million to cancer charities across Europe and the US with funds going towards raising awareness, research and support for cancer services.     The campaign also includes a 37-piece collection of post-surgery bras, underwear, leisurewear, nightwear and beauty products across our post-surgery and solidarity ranges.    #Primark #Werewithyou #Breastcancerawareness

We’re committed to supporting and improving the livelihoods of the people who make our products. As a part of our goal to create financial resilience for workers in our supply chain, we’re proud to have worked with IDEO.org in developing Bright Futures, a financial literacy pilot program for garment workers in our supplier factories in Vietnam. This initiative, in collaboration with Standard Chartered, focuses on empowering workers through open conversations about finance and building essential financial skills. It’s fantastic to see the Bright Futures team recognised for their hard work at the The Money Awareness and Inclusion Awards recently, winning runner-up for Best Adult Financial Education Project.

50 and fabulous! 🎉 We’re ready to celebrate as we mark 50 years to the day since we first opened our doors in Great Britain. Five years after opening our first store in Dublin, our founder Arthur Ryan set his sights across the pond and opened the first Primark in Derby, England, on this day in 1974 🎉 While fashions have changed and our stores have evolved, over the past five decades we’ve stayed true to who we are – helping people to look good and feel good every day for less. A big thank you to all our colleagues – past and present - for the important role they’ve played in our journey.💙 Here’s to the next 50.
