The expansion is driven by continued strong performance across all areas of its business, including next-day delivery, logistics services, and Out of Home solutions.
The company is investing €10 million in developing a second distribution hub, which will be located at Gateway Logistics Park, Newlands Cross, Naas Road, Dublin 22. This strategic expansion will enable DPD Ireland to meet increasing parcel volumes and further enhance service capacity nationwide.
As part of this growth, DPD Ireland will expand its workforce by more than 200 employees in the areas of operations, drivers and administration, reinforcing its commitment to supporting the Irish economy and delivering best-in-class logistics solutions. The company will also introduce 270 autonomous robots to replace its conveyor operations and enhance its sorting capabilities. As a result, up to 10,000 parcels will be handled every hour.
Chief Executive Des Travers commented.
“We are delighted to announce this significant investment in our infrastructure and our people. This expansion is a direct result of the 99% service level we consistently deliver to our customers. Their trust and continued support have enabled our growth across all areas of the business.This new hub strongly positions us to meet rising parcel delivery demand and ensures that we continue to provide the high level of service that our customers expect, year-round. It is an exciting step forward for DPD Ireland as we build for the future.”
The new distribution hub will be fully operational by October 2026.
