According to Todd Millay, Executive Director of the University Arizona Student Unions, the organizations stand behind Grubhub's decision to end its partnership with Yandex, the corporation that builds the robots.
"Arizona Student Unions and Arizona Dining stands in support of the recent decision Grubhub made to end their partnership with Yandex. Yandex, a Russian multi-national corporation, was the hardware provider for Arizona Dining’s robot courier delivery service recently launched on campus. As of March 3, 2022, Yandex robots will no longer operate on the University of Arizona campus," Millay said in a statement.
The robots, created by the company Yandex Self-Driving Group, launched in November and allowed students are able to order IQ Fresh, Einstein Bagels, On Deck Deli and Sabor.“We will be ending our partnership with Yandex. We take seriously our commitment to the universities that we partner with – and ultimately the student diners who order from the Grubhub platform – to make food ordering and delivery available on campus.
