Foodfy is building the Middle East's first hybrid drone-runner delivery network. Orders fly between DronePort™ hubs by autonomous drone and are hand-delivered the final mile by runners — cutting delivery time to under 15 minutes.
A seamless 3-leg hybrid delivery that combines the speed of autonomous drones with the precision of human runners.
A nearby runner picks up the sealed order from the restaurant and delivers it to the closest DronePort™ hub — typically within 1 km. The package is loaded into a weather-sealed drone cargo pod.
The drone flies autonomously along a pre-approved air corridor at speeds up to 80 km/h. Real-time telemetry monitors altitude, battery, wind, and airspace. What takes a car 25 minutes takes the drone just 6.
A runner stationed at the destination hub receives the package and hand-delivers it to the customer's door. Every leg is tracked in real-time with live map updates on the customer's phone.
A comparison of delivery methods across the metrics that matter most.

| Last-Mile Precision | ✓Door-to-door | ✓Door-to-door | ✗Landing zone only |
| CO₂ Emissions | High (fuel/EV) | ~90% lower | ~95% lower |
| Traffic Dependency | ✗Fully dependent | ✓Airborne bypass | ✓Airborne bypass |
| Weather Resilience | Moderate | Auto-fallback to runner | ✗Grounded |
| Payload Flexibility | Unlimited | Up to 5 kg | Up to 3 kg |
| Scalability | Linear (headcount) | Exponential (hub network) | Hardware-limited |
Our growing network of strategically placed DronePort hubs across the UAE, designed using AI-powered zone analysis for optimal coverage.
Every flight is backed by enterprise-grade software, real-time AI, and redundant safety systems.
Machine learning selects the optimal delivery mode — traditional runner vs. drone-assisted — by analyzing distance, traffic, weather, and fleet availability in real time.
Integrated meteorological data automatically grounds flights when wind, rain, or visibility fall outside safe parameters — with instant fallback to ground delivery.
GPS position, altitude, battery voltage, motor temperatures, and airspace status stream at 1 Hz to both the operations dashboard and the customer's tracking page.
Before every takeoff, 12 automated checks validate battery health, motor status, payload weight, airspace clearance, weather, and regulatory permits.
Proprietary algorithm scores potential DronePort locations based on restaurant density, order volume, population clusters, airspace restrictions, and competitor proximity.
Runner dispatch optimizes for continuous utilization — pickup runners transition to delivery runners and vice versa, eliminating idle wait times at hubs.
We don't move fast and break things. We move smart and build trust — with aviation authorities, municipalities, and communities.
Aligned with UAE General Civil Aviation Authority frameworks for unmanned aircraft operations.
Every country's altitude limits, weight caps, license requirements, and no-fly zones are codified in our regulatory database.
Flight corridors avoid restricted airspace, helipads, airports, and military zones with geo-fenced boundaries.
Every drone broadcasts identification and position data, meeting international Remote ID standards for public airspace operations.
We actively seek collaboration with civil aviation authorities, smart city initiatives, and regulatory bodies to shape the future of drone delivery together.
Explore Partnerships →Join Foodfy's shared economy model. Invest in DronePort infrastructure or drone fleets and earn revenue from every delivery that flows through your assets.
Build and operate DronePort hubs — the physical infrastructure that makes drone delivery possible. Ideal for government authorities, real estate developers, and logistics companies.
Procure drones from our authorized suppliers and earn passive income from every delivery your drones complete. Perfect for delivery companies, investment groups, and forward-thinking individuals.
Every drone delivery fee is transparently split among all stakeholders.
When both DronePort hubs on a route are owned by the same partner, they earn 40%. Rates are configurable per agreement.
