DPD Ireland, formerly Interlink Ireland, provides an overnight service for the collection and delivery of parcels through a network of franchises and network members in Ireland.
It was founded in 1986 with 10 depots. The company now has 38 depots handling in excess of over 7 million parcels per year.
In 2000, it became part of GeoPost S.A., the parcels and express division of La Poste, the French Post Office. In June 2006, it invested €18 million in a new hub and headquarters in Athlone.
In February 2008, Interlink Ireland changed its name to DPD. Its parent company, La Poste, united its express parcel companies under one single brand, DPD.
