Aerodyne Group, DroneDash Technologies partner for cross-border drone delivery

Initial focus will be on delivery routes to Johor Bahru and Iskandar Malaysia.

Drone service provider Aerodyne Group has partnered with air mobility company DroneDash Technologies to introduce cross-border drone delivery services between Malaysia and Singapore.

The collaboration will boost logistics efficiency across the two countries, leveraging specialized technologies to pioneer shore-to-shore drone operations.

The operation relies on an advanced navigation system powered by satellite communications and dual-city 5G roaming to ensure drones safely navigate congested maritime and aerial routes.

The initial focus will be on delivery routes to Johor Bahru and Iskandar Malaysia, with plans for expansion. The initiative is set to commence commercial operations in the third quarter of 2024.

Drones will carry payloads of up to 30 kilograms and achieve speeds of 150 km/h, promising secure and efficient transport for urgent documents, high-value electronics, medical supplies, and perishable foods.

“Organisations in the logistics, cargo delivery and freight services sector stand to gain a double-digit percentage improvement in overall productivity and cost,” said Paul Yam, CEO of DroneDash.

“With the formation of the recent Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone, we are proud to play a part in strengthening economic connectivity between the two regions,” added Mudzakkir Hatta, CEO of Aerodyne.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
