DoorDash

DoorDash has recently revealed the initiation of a drone delivery pilot program, teaming up with Alphabet’s Wing.

The testing phase has kicked off in Christiansburg, VA, a town with approximately 22,000 residents, focusing solely on “eligible items” from the fast-food giant Wendy’s. However, it remains uncertain whether this includes the beloved Frosty dessert or the popular fry condiment.

Only one Wendy’s location is involved, but local customers will find a “deliver by drone” option on the DoorDash checkout page. DoorDash promises delivery within 30 minutes, making drones as fast as pizza deliveries were in the 1980s.

Wendy’s is just the beginning, with more restaurant partners expected to join. DoorDash believes drones provide a more efficient, sustainable, and convenient delivery experience. The program will expand to more US cities throughout the year.
