Primark intros new organic cotton range

Primark is launching a new organic cotton range, priced from £4 they’re a classic Primark bargain, but this time with an ‘eco-friendly’ tag.

The store, now a member of the Ethical Trading Initiative, has also pledged to reduce plastic bag usage by 25% by 2008.
