Mark Wuennenberg, Vice-President of Regulatory Affairs for Drone Delivery Canada, said, “The Company has been working around the clock to achieve compliant status and is both grateful and appreciative of being recognized as a professional and safe operator of unmanned aircraft (UAS) by Transport Canada.

Although drones, or ‘Unmanned Aerial Vehicles’, have so far been used primarily as flying gadgets for fun, they are increasingly being tested for commercial purposes. Online retailers such as Amazon as well as logistic companies UPS and DHL are exploring ways to deliver packages to their customers with drones. While these companies use drones for delivering to their own customers primarily in urban settings, Drone Delivery Canada focuses on providing delivery solutions for businesses such as retailers, logistics and government agencies in rural areas.
