March 14th saw Primark open its doors at Bluewater for the first time. Matt Cassell at Time Retail Partners advised Land Sec on the deal which has been 6 years in the planning and saw nearly 1,000 eager shoppers queuing ready for the store to open its doors.
The new store is 62,000 sqft over 2 trading floors. Delivering the space involved agreeing a number of relocations as well as a complicated structural solution to extend the store out over an existing service bay.
