Drones can bypass traffic and other ground obstacles, reducing delivery times, especially in urban areas. They can take the most direct routes from warehouses to delivery points, minimizing travel distance and time.
Introducion of drones into the last-mile logistics industry can also reduce the reliance on human delivery personnel, thereby lowering labor costs.
Traditional delivery vehicles require fuel and frequent maintenance. Drones provide lower operational costs as they do not require fuel or frequent maintenance to operate.
Drones can reach locations that are difficult for traditional vehicles, such as rural or disaster-stricken areas. In dense urban environments where traffic congestion is a problem, drones can offer a practical alternative.
Apart from zero delays in terms of carrying out delivery services, drones also encourage a greener environment by producing fewer emissions compared to gas-powered delivery vehicles which helps in contributing to lower environmental impact.
Introduction of drone delivery services also helps in improving customer satisfaction by offering fast delivery times and security.
Real-time tracking of orders help to reduce risk of theft and promotes customer trust.
