Drone delivery of food will begin in Melbourne as part of a partnership between DoorDash and Wing, a subsidiary of Google’s parent company Alphabet.

The drones will transport small orders from a variety of outlets in Eastland Shopping Centre, one of the largest shopping centres in Australia. The delivery is expected to take 15 minutes or less—faster than traditional car delivery.
