Domino's Pizza partners with Nuro to bring autonomous pizza delivery to Houston

Domino's Pizza, the largest pizza company in the world, is partnering with Nuro, the robotics company transforming local commerce, on autonomous pizza delivery using the custom unmanned vehicle known as the R2 later this year.

With this partnership, the global leader in pizza delivery will use Nuro's unmanned fleet for serving select Houston Domino's customers who place orders online. The partnership will further expand Nuro's autonomous delivery operations, which have safely and successfully been running in the Houston metro area since March 2019.

Kevin Vasconi, Executive Vice President and Chief Information Officer, Domino's, said, "We are always looking for new ways to innovate and evolve the delivery experience for our customers. Nuro's vehicles are specially designed to optimize the food delivery experience, which makes them a valuable partner in our autonomous vehicle journey. The opportunity to bring our customers the choice of unmanned delivery experience, and our operators an additional delivery solution during a busy store rush, is an important part of our autonomous vehicle testing."

Cosimo Leipold, Head of Partner Relations, Nuro, added, "We are excited to expand our autonomous delivery service in Houston with Domino's delivery. Domino's delivers millions of pizzas around the world every day, and the company shares our passion for focusing on the customer experience. We see incredible opportunity in offering Nuro's world-class autonomous technology to Domino's customers, accelerating our shared mission to transform local commerce."
