Pizza Hut Canada Tests Robotic Doorstep Delivery In Vancouver

Yum! Brands Inc YUM owned Pizza Hut Canada is testing its new robot delivery service.
The national chain is partnering with Serve Robotics, an autonomous sidewalk delivery company, to host a two-week pilot program in Vancouver.

"Pizza Hut is thrilled to be at the forefront of this technology and partner with Serve Robotics to bring this offering to Canada for the first time," said Manish Dhankher, Director of Operations at Pizza Hut Canada.
