But it’s a sign of which way the wind is blowing: Companies increasingly view drones as the future of delivery services. Deliveroo is exploring the potential of using drones to deliver their goods to customers, according to the CEO, William Shu, who spoke at TechCrunch Disrupt in London today. Although Shu gave no timeframe, it is an example of another company which is seriously considering the use of drones for consumer deliveries. The drone delivery service would be a new way for companies like Amazon and Uber to offer consumers faster delivery, but also cheaper prices. Drone deliveries have the potential to significantly reduce operational costs, delivery times and reliance on human drivers.
