Door Dash by Drone

The pilot program will begin this week, enabling selected customers in the Logan area to order a variety of convenience and grocery items, pantry staples, snacks, and household essentials via the Door Dash App, which will then be delivered by a Wing drone in an average time-frame of 15 minutes or less. This pilot program will initially be made available to a small number of households, with plans to gradually expand availability in the coming months.

Wing has been working on this new integration for some time now, with the company believing that providing customers with access to Wing’s delivery service through a third party app will serve as another step towards its goal of realizing a highly integratable drone delivery service capable of rapidly scaling.

As such, the company has already begun making steps to transform its operations, relocating them closer to retailers to enable faster, simpler, and more affordable deployment. As of yet, Wing has established a drone delivery hub on the rooftop of a local shopping center in Australia, as well as its first home delivery service in Dallas. Additionally, the company recently announced that it will be expanding this model to Australia’s Gold Coast.

Wing views this new integration as the logical next step in its efforts to make drone delivery a plug-and-play option for a wider audience of businesses and consumers, regardless of which app they order with.
