DoorDash has announced the launch of a drone delivery pilot program in the US, beginning with a test market at a Wendy's location in Christiansburg, Virginia. The initiative, in partnership with Alphabet's Wing, aims to provide autonomous drone deliveries to customers, with potential delivery times as short as 7 minutes. The company is optimistic about the sustainable and convenient options this technology will bring to its platform. While this marks DoorDash's first drone delivery program in the US, similar initiatives have been introduced by other companies like Walgreens and Amazon, signaling a growing trend in the industry.
