Oldham Primark store included in click and collect trial

The mix of Primark stores taking part in the new trial - which includes the one in the Market Place in Oldham - ranges from large city centre and out-of-town stores to smaller high street locations

Primark will launch its new Click and Collect service in 25 selected stores located across the North West of England, Yorkshire and North Wales before the end of the year.

The mix of Primark stores taking part in the new trial - which includes the one in the Market Place in Oldham - ranges from large city centre and out-of-town stores to smaller high street locations.

The trial will offer customers the opportunity to shop an extended kids’ range - spanning everything from clothing and accessories, to decorative nursery products and toys - and will also include hundreds of items exclusive to Click and Collect.

The launch will mark the first time that Primark has offered customers the option to buy online and then collect in store.

Customers will be able to browse the range online, choose their preferred collection day and then collect from a dedicated collection point at their nominated store.

Kari Rodgers, Primark UK Retail Director, said: “We're thrilled that customers across North West England, parts of Yorkshire and North Wales, will soon be the first in the country to get the chance to try out our new Click and Collect offer.

"From launch, they’ll be able to browse and buy from our extensive range of kids clothing and nursery products, from the comfort of their own home, before coming to collect from one of our chosen 25 stores."

Shoppers across the country can also now visit Primark’s new website – launched in the UK earlier this year – which features thousands of products from the business’ best-selling ranges across men’s, women’s, kids’ and home, and offers customers the option to check item availability in local stores before making a visit.

This news follows the announcement in August that Primark is protecting the prices on more than a thousand essential kids’ products in response to the increasing pressure felt by households up and down the country.
