Your food could be delivered by an underground robot: Wendy's tests new mobile order system

Robots could be coming to a Wendy’s near you, delivering chili, 4 for 4s and Biggie Bags much quicker to your parking spot in seconds.

The company is working with an Austin, Texas hyperlogistics company called Pipedream to test an underground robot system that will deliver digital orders to designated parking spots in a matter of seconds, the restaurant said in a news release Wednesday.

Testing for the underground delivery system will begin at an existing restaurant later this year, the companies said.

“We know that serving orders quickly and accurately leads to increased customer satisfaction,” said Deepak Ajmani, U.S. Chief Operations Officer for Wendy’s, in the news release. “Pipedream’s Instant Pickup system has the potential to unlock greater mobile order speed of service and accuracy, enabling us to consistently deliver hot and fresh Wendy’s products to our fans.”
