CASE STUDY: PRIMARK the Corporate Impact of Human Rights Abuse and Effective Due Diligence
CASE STUDY: PRIMARK The Corporate Impact of Human Rights Abuse and Effective Due Diligence Abstract Primark has refocused its corporate social responsibility in response to the deadly Rana Plaza tragedy, implementing key ethical initiatives to ensure supplier compliance with ethical standards and increased transparency surrounding employment practices. Human rights PR scandals have had a lasting impact on consumer perception of the Primark brand, illustrating the necessity of acting pre-emptively to mitigate latent risks within the supply chain. Primark’s prioritisation of worker rights through the reformation of their auditing process and application of meaningful due diligence has been largely successful in addressing supply chain human rights abuses, particularly where workers have been personally engaged to provide authentic testimony about working conditions. Primark has contributed significant resources to promoting sustainable sourcing, in a wider attempt to destigmatise the consumer notion that ‘fast fashion’ perpetuates unethical practices, and to make amends for historically poor labour practices. Introduction Jack Cohen, founder of Tesco’s, famously claimed that success in business is simple; “pile it high, sell it cheap”. Few companies reflect this philosophy more astutely than Primark. The high street fashion retailer, owned by Associated British Foods, has seen impressive increases in revenue over the last decade: from £1.6 billion in 2007 to £7.1 billion in 2017. Primark’s business model is responsible for the company’s rapid expansion. The ‘fast fashion’ trend popularised by the retailer has won over consumers through wholesale undercutting of high street competitors. Primark has become a driving force in the fashion industry. Where consumers are increasingly conscious of their spending, Primark’s universal appeal and accessibility have driven its UK fashion industry market share to 7%, second only to Marks and Spencer’s at 7.5%.

Pre Close Period Trading Update
7 September 2020 Associated British Foods plc Pre Close Period Trading Update Associated British Foods plc issues the following update prior to entering the close period for its full year results for the 52 weeks to 12 September 2020, which are scheduled to be announced on 3 November 2020. Trading performance Trading in the fourth quarter in both our food businesses and Primark exceeded our expectations. Grocery benefited from a continuation of increased retail sales volumes in our key markets of the US, Europe and Australia. Increased demand for yeast and bakery ingredients, particularly across the Americas and China, delivered higher sales for Ingredients. As expected Sugar will deliver a much improved profit year on year. All Primark stores reopened during May, June and July and trading during the fourth quarter has been strong. In the latest four-week UK market data for sales in all channels Primark achieved our highest ever value and volume shares for this time of year. For the full year we expect a very strong increase in the aggregate adjusted operating profit for our Sugar, Grocery, Agriculture and Ingredients businesses over last year. This will be driven by increases in each division with particularly strong increases in Sugar and Grocery. Adjusted operating profit for Primark on an IFRS16 basis, excluding exceptional charges, is now expected to be at least at the top end of the £300-350m range previously advised compared to £913m reported for the last financial year. Net interest expense and lease interest will be in line with last year, on an IFRS16 pro forma basis, and other financial income will be lower than in 2019 as previously explained.

Chg Forecast The COVID-19 pandemic hit the Czech Republic at the beginning of March, proving a slight delay as compared to the rest of Western Europe. For this reason, January and February still showed positive performance. Most government restrictive measures came in the €42,406 second half of March. In Q4 2019, the economy continued to slow down and grew at 2.0% y/y, while Q1 2020 is expected to grow at Average HH Income 1.0%, which is a positive outcome compared to the Eurozone average of 1.0% in Q4 2019 and Q1 2020 forecast -1.6%. The Czech government managed to stop and prevent further spreading of Covid-19 in a timely matter. The bill for this success will be issued in the coming quarters when in addition to hospitality, retail will be one of the most affected sectors. The Czech Republic has the advantage of €235.00 long-term low unemployment and the level of public debt, which gives space to mitigate the negative impact on the economy. Prime Rent, Sq m/month SUPPLY AND DEMAND: E-commerce benefits from increased interest in online shopping 4.50% Some of the upcoming retail projects are likely to be delayed because of the slowdown in construction. We will get more accurate figures Prime Yield in the coming quarters.

MADRID Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide
MADRID Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Cushman & Wakefield | Madrid | 2019 0 The retail market in Madrid has two major hubs (Centro and Salamanca districts) where the greatest concentration of both national and international retailers can be found. There are also a number of key secondary locations including Princesa, Orense and Alcala Streets. The City of Madrid continues to renew itself and adapt to changing trading environments, such as the recent refurbishment along Serrano Street with improved pedestrian mobility. At the Centro district many streets have also seen the refurbishment of buildings and changing uses in order to accommodate new brands in the city centre, where in the past it has been difficult to find good quality retail space as well as suitable hospitality spaces. Barrio de Salamanca is one of the two most important commercial areas of Madrid. A considerable number of international retailers are located in this area. As a result, the diversity of the retail offer in this area makes it an ideal destination for tourists and customers seeking the many brands that trade here. Within the district there are key luxury streets, such as Ortega y Gasset, and also streets geared towards mass market, including Goya and Velázquez. Along the secondary streets, such as Claudio MADRID Coello, Lagasca, Jorge Juan and Ayala, a large number of premium brands also have a strong presence.
