Primark has been confirmed as the first new tenant for the intu Trafford Centre's £74 million transformation.
The budget fashion store will anchor an expanded and refreshed Barton Square which is set to gain another 110,000 sq ft of extra retail space, a new glass-domed roof and a fully redesigned interior.
The unit will incorporate space previously occupied by BHS Home and is set to open in 2019.
Colin Flinn, regional managing director for intu, said: “This is a significant milestone for intu Trafford Centre that will enable us to reposition and redevelop an important part of the centre so that we can create even better customer experiences and more opportunities for retailers to flourish.
“The work we are planning at Barton Square will attract more visitors for longer by expanding the centre’s retail and leisure mix and creating a new space befitting this architecturally-rich building.”
Work is due to start on site during the first half of next year.
