It will also feature Primark's ranges of products made using sustainable, recycled and organic materials.
 
"The unique make-up of American Dream and its offering to customers is reflective of our own ethos to provide something for everyone, and we look forward to being part of the mall's vibrant and diverse retail offering,” said Andy Stewart, president of Primark U.S.
