Down memory lane, many of us can relate drones only to sci-fi films. It is difficult to believe that now they are not only a matter of reality, but instrumental to crucial changes in various industries. Presently, as consumer expectations shift towards faster and more reliable delivery services, businesses are exploring innovative solutions to enhance their supply chain operations. Drones, or Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), are emerging as key components in this transformation.
According to Mr. Pankaj Kumar, the Managing Director of Shard Center for Innovation, “One of the most interesting technological developments of the 21st century is the integration of drones in the supply chain logistics. Drones have the potential to completely change the way that goods and services are delivered by giving the businesses ability to lower logistical costs, boost productivity, and provide customers with faster product delivery. This revolutionary innovation not only redefines operating standards but also holds out the possibility of a time when supply chains will function more responsibly than ever before and also meet the evolving demands of global commerce.”
