I just don’t see how the pieces of this logically fit together.
If you still need last mile drivers in an area, you’ll need to keep them busy... which means you’ll need a lot of demand in that area... which means you might as well just produce the food there.
Oh, and the drones can only carry one meal at a time... which means you’ll need hundreds of separate flights at peak times during the day to support the delivery fleet you’ve hired in this locale.
This feels like a distraction and a poor attempt to make themselves stand out when they are really subject to all of the same perilous dynamics that everyone else in the food delivery space is subject to.
"We're sorry your meal was not delivered. Seagulls have discovered our drones carry french fries and have been targeting our drones mid-air."
But in reality, is this the best tool for quick meal deliveries? Seems that weight will be an issue and I imagine obstacles will always been an issue (animals, powerlines, branches, malicious people wanting free food). I don't have a lot of faith in the drone-delivery game, at least for many years.
