Tesco is testing out drone deliveries to bring shopping to your home minutes after ordering. The pilot scheme by Britain's biggest supermarket chain is being conducted with drone delivery start-up Manna. The race to get ahead in the online food market has been set alight by coronavirus which has doubled the size of the market. Tesco has taken on 16,000 staff and grown its delivery capacity to 1.2million orders per week. Alibaba, a leading retailer in China, which leads the world in online shopping and drones, has been deploying drones for five years.
