Parcel delivery business Nightline is to create 150 new jobs as part of a €3m expansion of its business.

The company says it is expanding to cater for the launch of new services – including same-day, evening and weekend deliveries. As a result of this investment, Nightline has opened three new depots, in Swords, Co Dublin, Omagh, Co Tyrone and Kilbarry, Co Waterford.

The jobs will include new delivery driver posts, depot support staff and sortation shift staff and will be spread across various locations in Ireland. Nightline says the continued growth of e-commerce and the recent introduction of the Eircode system are two main factors in its recent growth.

Nightline founder and chief executive John Tuohy said that afteralmost a quarter of a century in business, the company was enjoying "consistent and sustained" growth. He said the implementation of Eircodes had improved its efficiency.

Nightline now has 13 Irish depots.
