Ecom Express and Skye Air partner for the drone delivery technology

Ecom Express and Skye Air have partnered to disrupt last-mile delivery solutions, aiming to increase delivery speed, improve efficiency, and reduce carbon emissions.

Ecom Express Limited, a technology-driven end-to-end logistics solutions provider, and Skye Air, a drone technology company, have announced a strategic agreement to disrupt last-mile delivery solutions. This agreement marks a huge step forward in the logistics business, bringing together Ecom Express’ network and automation experience with Skye Air’s cutting-edge drone delivery technology.

Driven by a common commitment to innovation and customer pleasure, both organisations are on a quest to increase delivery speed, improve efficiency, and cut carbon emissions. According to studies, switching to drone-based delivery may cut carbon emissions by 93 percent compared to road parcel deliveries, making a significant contribution to environmental sustainability. Through this collaboration, they want to solve the intertwined issues of transportation congestion and environmental sustainability.

Vishwachetan Nadamani, COO, Ecom Express, said, “By leveraging Skye Air’s expertise in drone technology, we are excited to explore new opportunities to enhance our delivery services. This collaboration will not only amplify our efforts in reducing delivery times for e-commerce parcels but also enable sustainability efforts beyond electrification of last-mile vehicles.”

This collaboration will begin with drone delivery experiments in select Gurugram locales, with ambitions to expand to reach more pin codes in sparsely populated areas and rugged terrains across India in following stages.

Ankit Kumar, founder and CEO of Skye Air, said “We are thrilled to partner with Ecom Express to integrate drone delivery technology into their last-mile delivery ecosystem. By harnessing the power of drones, we are not just delivering parcels; we are revolutionising the delivery landscape with a focus on efficiency and sustainability. Leveraging our state-of-the-art tech stack and infrastructure, including Skye Pod and Skye UTM, we aim to enable faster, safer, and more efficient deliveries. Together, we are paving the way for faster and more sustainable deliveries, providing an unmatched delivery experience.”
