Insights

Tech and Logistics Analyst

Arrive AI's Antigua expansion demonstrates practical application of their secure delivery technology with quantifiable market opportunity of 120,000 annual deliveries.

This partnership expansion between Arrive AI and AllMart/ACT Antigua represents a strategic implementation of Arrive AI's core technology in a real-world setting. The company is upgrading from basic smart mailboxes to their more sophisticated, patented Arrive Points™ in the Antigua market after successful pilot testing showed strong consumer interest.

The advanced features of these Arrive Points—including temperature control, data tracking, and emergency lighting—address critical last-mile delivery challenges in the Caribbean market. These features are particularly valuable in tropical environments where package security and preservation are significant concerns.

What's notable is that AllMart currently handles approximately 120,000 deliveries annually in Antigua & Barbuda. This provides a quantifiable market opportunity for Arrive AI to demonstrate their technology's value proposition. The partnership addresses two key consumer pain points: theft/damage of unattended deliveries and the inconvenience of having to be present for deliveries.

The regulatory environment in Antigua regarding drone usage offers Arrive AI a valuable testing ground for future autonomous delivery capabilities. This creates a pathway for technology evolution from traditional delivery methods to potentially autonomous solutions over time—allowing Arrive AI to demonstrate its full technology stack in a controlled market environment before wider implementation.

This deployment illustrates Arrive AI's dual-approach strategy: providing value through secure delivery infrastructure regardless of whether deliveries are made autonomously or traditionally, while simultaneously creating the foundation for future autonomous delivery networks.

INDIANAPOLIS, IN AND ST. JOHN'S ANTIGUA / ACCESS Newswire / July 18, 2025 / Arrive AI (NASDAQ:ARAI) - a pioneering autonomous delivery network anchored by Arrive Points™ - today announced an expanded partnership with AllMart - Local Marketplace & ACT Antigua, which operates a delivery service on the islands of Antigua & Barbuda. This collaboration aims to enhance secure delivery options for residents on the islands.

Arrive AI and AllMart have been successfully testing smart mailbox delivery for several months. AllMart, CEO Andrew Doumith, stated the trials have demonstrated strong consumer interest in the enhanced security provided by Arrive AI's secure mailboxes. With the completion of drone delivery tests and as demand increases, Arrive AI will update its existing smart mailbox footprint to the islands with a roll out of its more sophisticated, patented Arrive Points, which offer additional smart features, including temperature control, data tracking and emergency lighting.

"Our customers are very interested in being able to schedule grocery and retail deliveries and have those items waiting for them when they get home," Doumith said. "It's a real convenience that we believe will make a big difference for our customers."

Arrive AI CEO Dan O'Toole anticipates a rise in demand as more consumers experience the service firsthand.

"Our work in Antigua is important because it showcases the value of our units, whether items are delivered autonomously or via traditional means," O'Toole said. "Security is our primary concern, and with that comes huge convenience for consumers. We will continue to add technology to the service there as demand increases."

AllMart had previously been making about 120,000 deliveries a year to customers with options for leaving ordered items either on doorsteps or in customers' hands. The first option leaves items vulnerable to weather or other damage and theft. The second demands consumers be home when their deliveries arrive.

O'Toole also noted that the islands' moderate regulation regarding drone usage will make the area a great testing ground for drone deliveries.
