Domino's claims it has completed the world's first pizza delivery by drone.
Domino's says it shipped two pizzas - one peri-peri chicken and one chicken and cranberry - to a customer in Whangaparaoa, 25km north of Auckland, shortly before Wednesday lunchtime.
The company said the successful use of the unmanned aerial vehicle represented the first commercial delivery of food by drone to a customer anywhere in the world.
"We believe drone delivery will be an essential component of our pizza deliveries, so even more customers can receive the freshest, hottest pizza we can offer," Domino's chief executive Don Meij said in a statement.
Domino's is looking conduct drone delivery trials in Australia, Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Japan and Germany.
