Grubhub is launching New Jersey\u2019s first-ever commercial drone-powered food delivery service, the company announced last Wednesday.<\/p>\n
The service, which will run for three months as a test program, will operate out of Green Brook Township, located one hour southwest of New York City.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The food ordering marketplace will partner with autonomous drone company Dexa to deliver meals directly from a local Wonder food hall operated by its parent company. These Wonder facilities function as high-tech kitchens where staff assemble and finish dishes pre-prepared by its numerous restaurant brand partners, helping streamline the ordering process.<\/p>\n
The drone service is expected to deliver food faster than traditional methods and comes at no additional cost beyond standard delivery and service fees, the Chicago-based company said.<\/p>\n

“This service is a glimpse into the future of how autonomous technology will help restaurants and retailers serve customers at a completely new level,” CEO of Dexa Beth Flippo said in a statement.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Customers can use the Grubhub app to order from the local Wonder location, which offers 15 different restaurant concepts prepared in a single location, and can specifically opt for drone delivery.<\/p>\n

Dexa\u2019s AI-operated drone, the DE-2020, will then take off and fly along approved paths designed to prioritize safety while minimizing noise and other community disruptions.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once it reaches the customer, instead of landing, it will safely lower the order to the ground using a controlled tether system.<\/p>\n
The drone company\u2019s flight crews will also verify that the food is correctly packaged and secured before taking off, Grubhub said.<\/p>\n

Through the Grubhub platform, diners can also monitor food delivery using real-time GPS tracking and arrival notifications.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
After the three-month trial at Green Brook, Grubhub will then evaluate the program’s success and consider expanding the service to other nearby restaurants.\u00a0<\/p>\n
