The increased use of drones by e-commerce companies is notably driving the drone package delivery market growth, although factors such as restrictive laws and regulations governing UAV use may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the drone package delivery industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Drone Package Delivery Market Driver
The increased use of drones by e-commerce companies is one of the key drivers fueling the drone package delivery market growth. Various factors such as rising costs of fuel, fleet service and maintenance, and labor are negatively affecting the revenue of e-commerce companies. Thus, many logistics players in partnership with e-commerce companies are investing in automated logistics solutions, such as drone delivery, to sustain in the highly competitive market, which is expected to replace manual interactions. For instance, in March 2022, EHang collaborated with Aerotree Flight Services Sdn. Bhd. to develop urban air mobility (UAM) business in Malaysia, including MRO and training. As a part of the agreement, AEROTREE has placed a pre-order for 50 EHang EH216 series and 10 VT-30 drones. Hence, an increase in the use of drones by the e-commerce industry will support the growth of the global drone package delivery market during the forecast period.
Key Drone Package Delivery Market Trend
The use of blockchain technology in drone package delivery is one of the key drone package delivery market trends supporting the market growth. Blockchain technology is a digital platform that provides distributed transaction ledger, which helps stakeholders to maintain identical copies of shared data on multiple computer-controlled systems. Blockchain in drone package delivery uses cloud infrastructure and virtualization to provide flexibility and scalability in the supply chain solution. In the delivery of the package, a blockchain-based repository is used to store operational information such as time, resource, location, package route, and delivery date for authenticating the data accessible to the drone. Such advancements are expected to propel the growth of the package delivery market in focus during the forecast period.
Key Drone Package Delivery Market Challenge
Restrictive laws and regulations governing UAV use is one of the key challenges impeding the drone package delivery market growth. Drones have a wider operational range than crewed aircraft, along with other differentiating physical and operational characteristics. Although governments and commercial bodies use unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) and UAVs for a variety of applications, their scope of use is dependent on various laws and regulations enacted by numerous governments across different countries. Such regulations restrict the scope of drone operations and hinder their mass adoption. Such regulatory hurdles will adversely affect the drone package delivery market growth during the forecast period.
