Primark Expands Presence in Germany with New Store in Mülheim-Kärlich
British clothing retailer Primark is set to open a new store in the industrial park of Mülheim-Kärlich, Rhineland-Palatinate, in 2026[3][5]. This expansion marks the third new location for the company in Germany this year, following branches in Regensburg and Rostock[7].
The new store will cover an area of around 2,100 square meters and is expected to create approximately 50 new jobs[1][2][4]. Primark's decision to open in Mülheim-Kärlich is part of its ongoing strategic growth in Germany, as the company looks to expand its presence into new regions with modern store concepts and a locally adapted product range[1].
It is worth noting that Mülheim-Kärlich will be a new location for Primark, marking the company's entry into a region where it has not been represented before[6]. The information about the new store was reported by the Rhein-Zeitung, among others, citing a press release from the company[8].
Despite the new expansion, Primark has clarified that the opening of the Mülheim-Kärlich store is not part of a consolidation phase in Germany[2]. The company's decision to open outside of city centers is a strategic move, as the new store will be located in the industrial park of Mülheim-Kärlich[4].
Primark is looking forward to doing business in Rhineland-Palatinate and contributing to the local economy. The company's expansion in Mülheim-Kärlich is expected to be a significant addition to Germany's largest shopping mile in the future[5].
