200 jobs to be created as part of Esso investment

Esso Ireland is to create up to 200 new jobs as part of a €70m investment that will see extra retail and cafe facilities at 41 service stations throughout Ireland.

The company described its ‘On the Run’ investment as a revolution in convenience retailing and said Ireland was chosen for the investment ahead of other international markets.

The ‘On the Run’ service will also include internet access and ATMs at certain locations, while Esso said a pay-at-the-pump service is also planned for the future.
