The Business Research Company's global market reports are now updated with the latest market sizing information for the year 2023 and forecasted to 2032
The Business Research Company's Delivery Drones Global Market Report 2023 identifies the increase in demand for drone deliveries as the major driver for the delivery drones market's growth in the forecast period. During COVID-19, contactless distribution expanded, and drones play a crucial role in ensuring the companies and clients contact as little as needed. Drones were heading to the sky in massive numbers during the pandemic to bring vital goods and drugs to the population in lockdown.
The global delivery drones market size grew from $1.45 billion in 2022 to $1.68 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.2%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The delivery drones market size is expected to grow to $4.35 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 26.8%.
A key trend in the delivery drones market includes technological advancement. Over the past few years, drones have become extremely prevalent as many individuals and organizations are completely accepting and incorporating this technology into their business models. For instance, in May 2022, Skyway, a US-based navigation service provider to urban air mobility (UAM) partnered with Zing Drone Delivery, a US-based drone delivery solutions firm to introduce first-ever food delivery by an advanced drone in Montverde, Florida, the USA. Skyway also started low-altitude weather services with its navigation services to enable safe delivery. This drone delivery offered time savings, efficiency, and convenience for users.
