Epazz Holdings: ZenaDrone Increasing Production of ZenaDrone 1000 for Signed Pilot Customers

Epazz, a mission-critical provider of drone technology, blockchain mobile apps and cloud-based business software solutions, announced that ZenaDrone Inc. is expanding its facilities in Dubai, UAE, to increase production of ZenaDrone 1000. The expansion of ZenaDrone 1000 is necessary to fulfill obligations under several pilot program agreements in which a customer can use ZenaDrone 1000 for an extended period of time. In addition, ZenaDrone has several demonstrations of its drone scheduled that require the need for its drones in multiple countries.

In 2022 ZenaDrone produced 10 ZenaDrone 1000. This year’s goal is to produce over 20 drones per month, with the capacity to produce 40 in the same facility.

CEO Shaun Passley, Ph.D., said, “We are encouraged by the level of interest we have received and based on the pilot program agreements and the number of scheduled demonstrations that it is time to expand to double the size of our production facility.”

ZenaDrone received a letter of support from the U.S. Air Force to use ZenaDrone 1000 for drone cargo delivery, which includes blood transport. ZenaDrone is invited to work with the U.S. Air Force at an overseas base to test the ZenaDrone 1000 platform under battlefield conditions. ZenaDrone will be assigned a team from the base to conduct the test.

Over the past couple of months ZenaDrone 1000 has been presented and showcased in front of the U.S. Military. As a result the company has been getting traction from the U.S. Airforce and U.S. Army. It is measured on a scale of 1 to 9, with 9 being the most mature technology.
