DJI
Being one of the largest developers of drones over the past decade DJI has started to develop the DJI M300. This drone developed further by WeRobotics and Flying Labs was being used as a pilot program to deliver medical supplies in Uganda as well as the Philippines. The drones are being used as a "last mile" delivery system for medicine with remote access. The upgrades by WeRobotics included cargo boxes and mounting mechanisms allowing the drone to have a maximum payload of between 1 to 1.5 kg. In a trial in Agusan Del Sur, Philippines between a motorcycle and a drone delivery in a 14km route performed by Pfizer showed a reduction in delivery times, while the motorcycle would deliver in 2 hours the drone reduced the trip by 7km and took just 10 minutes leading to a 92% faster delivery time.

DHL
An early pioneer in the drone delivery department partnered with UAV manufacturer Microdrones in December 2013. This pilot program took place in the City of Bonn and delivered pharmaceuticals to employees at DHL's headquarters in Germany. This project led to the DHL Parcelcopter which was tested in 2014 with a pilot project between the North Sea island of Juist and the mainland. The Parcelcopter was able to carry up to 1.2kg of medicine across the sea over a distance of about 12km in 15 to 25 minutes. This proved to DHL that drone delivery was feasible but the company ceased Parcelcopter operations in August 2021.
