Drone delivery service Manna has entered a partnership with Deliveroo.

Deliveroo has launched an autonomous drone food delivery service in Dublin in partnership with Irish firm Manna Drones.

As part of the partnership, Deliveroo customers in some areas of the suburbs of west Dublin will have the option to have their order delivered by drone, the company said Thursday. It will conduct a test phase in the coming weeks to assess how the drones can help serve suburban locations.
