Primark Benefits is a retirement plan service provider, spanning design, implementation, administration, compliance, and record-keeping for employer-sponsored retirement plans. Representing a broad cross-section of industries, our clients are small- and mid-sized companies and nonprofit agencies, ranging from medical groups to high-tech companies, art dealers to construction firms, law offices to consulting firms, manufacturing to financial services providers, and many more.
