A New Zealand pizza chain aims to become the
world's first company to offer a commercial
drone delivery service, a milestone in the onceunthinkable quest to save time and money
with an air-borne supply chain dispensing
with people. Domino's Pizza Enterprises Ltd
conducted a demonstration pizza delivery by
drone in the New Zealand city of Auckland on
Thursday, and afterwards said it aimed to be the first company to launch a regular drone
service, late this year, despite the fact that
Domino's Chief Executive Officer Don Meij
had said in a statement "We've always said
that it doesn't make sense to have a 2-tonne
machine delivering a 2-kilogram order."
Even though Domino’s Pizza used in its
test drones provided by U.S.-headquarted
Australian drone company Flirtey, Philip
Solaris, director of a New Zealand based drone
company called X-craft Enterprises, said
that while New Zealand has accommodating
regulations on drones, Domino’s would be
held back by a rule requiring drones to be
kept in sight at all times, and added “I can't
truly see how commercially viable that idea
is because you would have to literally have
somebody walking along to keep it in the
line of sight, watching it at all times.” Other
than that, he warned that “Domino’s service
would still need to overcome random hazards
(like) power lines, moving vehicles, children
in the backyard playing”.
