DSV Canada, the Global Transport and Logistics company, has just announced a new commercial agreement with Drone Delivery Canada (DDC) allowing them to deploy DDC’s drone delivery technology at their new 1.1 million square foot head office, logistics and warehouse facility in Derry Green Corporate Business Park.

The company, which has become a leader in delivering integrated and innovative supply chain solutions, has chosen Milton to launch this new commercial operation.

The initial operations will be deployed in early 2020, with the potential for expanding the initial drone routes to over 20 more by the end of the year.
