Deploying drone-based logistics services across Abu Dhabi
LODD and 7X continue to collaborate with regulators and industry partners to refine procedures, ensure regulatory compliance and gather operational insights
to support wider rollout, highlighting the continued collaboration between private partners and regulators to refine systems, ensure compliance and support
future expansion.
“Autonomous drones introduce a transformative layer to urban delivery networks. With one operator able to manage multiple deliveries simultaneously, the
system brings a new level of scalability and responsiveness to the logistics chain,” said Rashid Al Manai, CEO of LODD.
The pilot marks the first phase in a broader strategy to deploy drone-based logistics services across Abu Dhabi. With progressive regulation and infrastructure
readiness, the emirate is emerging as a leader in autonomous air mobility within the region.
“This milestone reflects our continued commitment to pioneering next-generation logistics solutions that align with the UAE’s vision for smart mobility. By
integrating autonomous aerial technology into EMX’s national logistics ecosystem, we are enhancing operational reach and speed, and building a more
adaptive, future-ready network capable of meeting the evolving demands of commerce and connectivity,” concluded Tariq Al Wahedi, Group CEO of 7X.
