Everyone's favourite fashion shop has announced its plans to change its opening hours after lockdown.
In a bid to ensure Christmas shoppers have plenty of time to get their goods before the big day on December 25, some high street stores will change their opening hours after lockdown ends on December 2.
A spokeswoman for Primark told Birmingham Live: "Associated British Foods PLC are calling for extended trading hours for Primark stores once they re-open in December."
Primark is not the only one, M&S confirmed longer hours will be in place on December 21, 22 and 23 and will apply to 400 of its stores - around two-thirds of its operation in England.
The branches which don't stay open until midnight will be open until 10pm.
Sacha Berendji, M&S’s Retail, operations and property director said: "We want our customers to be able to shop with confidence this Christmas, which means supporting social distancing in our stores and minimal queueing outside as the weather gets colder.
"To help with this, we’ll be operating our longest ever opening hours just before Christmas.
"Along with the wider industry, we continue to ask for Sunday trading hours to be extended to help us increase our capacity to serve everyone safely this festive season."
