Primark has opened its first Czech Republic store in the Flow Building, Flow East’s development on Wenceslas Square in Prague, marking the 14th market for the retailer.


The Prague shop joins Ljubljana in Slovenia, and Warsaw and Poznan in Poland, and is part of the company’s expansion in CEE. Primark has signed a lease for its first store in Slovakia and has announced Polish stores in Krakow and Katowice. A second store in the Czech Republic is set to open in Brno in 2022.

“We are so excited to finally bring Primark to the Czech Republic and what better place to do this than in the heart of Prague. This is another important market for us as we continue our expansion into Central and Eastern Europe and build our pipeline of new stores across the region,” said Paul Marchant, CEO of Primark.

The carbon cost is already in your building. You just can't see it yet

by Property Forum
A structural shift is rewriting the financial logic of European commercial real estate. It isn't being driven by ESG pressure or voluntary sustainability labels.

The argument isn't that green buildings are virtuous. It's that inefficient buildings are becoming measurably more expensive to own, operate, and finance.
