Why is Primark the place to go for bargains?
JUST how does Primark do it? Continue delivering fashionable items at such incredible prices? According to the bosses, it fell to four points.
- They “sell a lot of items” – thanks to this they are able to save money by buying in bulk for their 191 UK stores
- They “do very little advertising”
- Although their clothes offer the “latest trends,” they “do not use expensive hangers, tags, or labels.”
- And finally, they try to be “as efficient as possible when transporting products from factories to stores”. This includes things like asking “suppliers to package our t-shirts so they’re ready to go straight to the shelf.”

The director said that the cast and crew imagined a “very modern” story for the new version of the tale.
Favreau said that in the years since the original film’s release, the comedy dated and also said that the cast and authenticity of the project should feel up to date.
The filmmaker, who was also behind the updated version of The Jungle Book, said he felt a responsibility to honor the source material.
He previously said: “I think everything should feel like it’s 2019.
“Whether it’s the music, the cast, the visual effects, the way we really try to embrace the authenticity of what inspired the original.
“So letting the comedy be updated as well, and making it feel modern, because that’s one of the areas where I felt 25 years ago, you felt the difference.”
Favreau said he wanted the film to feel fresh and similar to the original version.

He said he wanted the audience’s response to be, “Even though it’s a new movie, I saw The Lion King.”
He added: “So I hope the new generation goes back and looks at the old version too.”
Favreau also said he didn’t want the audience to miss out on a new experience, wanting to ensure, “It didn’t just feel like ‘I should have watched the cartoon,’ that this is something that’s building on something I already love.”
