Primark/Penneys, an Irish clothing retailer, will recruit at least 200 employees for its first Belgian discounter in Liège that will open its door on 1 December 2009. The company also has branches in Great Britain, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands. According to Primark's CEO, the opening of further branches in Belgium depends on the success of the store in Liège.
