Domino’s Partners with Nuro

Domino’s Pizza and Nuro are partnering on autonomous pizza delivery using the custom unmanned vehicle known as the R2.

Domino’s will use Nuro’s unmanned fleet to serve select Houston Domino’s customers who place orders online. This partnership will expand Nuro’s autonomous delivery operations, which have safely and successfully been running in the Houston metro area since March 2019.

“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 an unmanned delivery experience, and our operators an additional delivery solution during a busy store rush, is an important part of our autonomous vehicle testing.” – Domino’s EVP & CIO Kevin Vasconi.

Select customers who order online from one of Domino’s participating stores will have the opportunity to use Nuro’s autonomous delivery. Once they have opted in, customers can track the vehicle via the Domino’s app and will be provided with a unique PIN code to unlock the compartment to get their pizza.

“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.” – Nuro’s Head of Partner Relations,  Cosimo Leipold.
