Redwing Labs: Ensuring drone-based delivery for medical supplies

An on-demand, drone-based, logistics solution company that is focused on establishing autonomous drone supply chain system to provide agile and guaranteed delivery of medical products to public health facilities.

The current healthcare supply chain system is not equipped to provide timely and reliable services in remote and hard-to-serve locations of the country. Redwing labs is an on-demand drone-based logistics solution company that helps in establishing autonomous drone supply chain systems to provide agile, guaranteed, and on-demand delivery of medical products to public health facilities. SAMRIDH supported Redwing Labs to establish last-mile automated supply chain networks in two districts in collaboration with state and local governments for autonomous and on-demand supply chain coverage for all the CHCs and PHCs in the intervention geography.

Key Outcomes

  • 2,000+ vaccines delivered
  • 1,200+ emergency vaccines and diagnostic samples supplied
