And the expansion also means a big boost for the local economy with more than 90pc of the construction work on the site over the past six months carried out by local firms.

"We believe in bringing our services to every part of Northern Ireland. It’s a testament to our staff that we are in a position to expand and take on more employees," said Mr.Taggart.

The Donnelly Group now employs 550 people throughout Northern Ireland and the workforce has more than doubled over the past nine years.

Donnelly and Taggart have brought their Fiat dealership to Eglinton for the first time and Suzuki have also joined the list of showrooms on the expanding site. The New Suzuki Showroom is a welcome addition to the multi-franchise site. Toyota was already on the site but now have a new state of the art facility in a major expansion.
