The cost of operating those is also questionable, especially in China. It is profitable to have pizza hand-delivered in the US/Europe where labor cost is high.

It is profitable to have pizza hand-delivered in the US/Europe where labor cost is high. In China, I wonder how that is even possible.
- lucaspiller 12y agoEverything is relative. If the salaries are 1/4 what they are in the US (as an example), then the cost of pizza will be relatively the same too. The percentage of that pizza that goes towards paying for the delivery is pretty much the same.
- puranjay 12y agoChinese cities are notoriously expensive. Cheap labor is limited to rural areas and smaller towns where most of the huge factories are located. The wages in a city like Shanghai, while obviously not comparable to a city like NYC, are high enough to warrant a drone solution.
