Drone Delivery Canada has announced that the DSV Air & Sea Inc. Canada (DSV) project is now commercially operational.

Commercial operations and revenue-generation are pursuant to the terms of the Agreement.

DSV is a global leader in the logistics industry and a perfect fit as a long-term, scalable customer for us," said Michael Zahra, president & CEO of DDC. "DDC continues to lead the drone logistics industry and we have a very strong funnel of global opportunities and expect to see continued customer announcements in 2020 for deployment & revenue generation this year. We would like to thank our employees, shareholders, Air Canada and DSV for helping us achieve this major commercial milestone."
"With the commercial roll-out, we are looking ahead with our clients based on their unique needs and requirements. Many of our key clients are excited and ready to be part of these innovative next steps," said Martin Roos, Managing Director – DSV Air & Sea, Canada.
