Walmart Drones incoming! Pretty big announcement coming out of #ces2024. We’ve seen the Walmart drone delivery tests going on near the home office for a while now. I was sceptical these would ever see a large scale roll out. Looks like it may be happening in one of the best metros in the world. When this comes to your town, would you use the service just for the fun of watching your delivery make a hover landing? I think I might. Will this increase delivery speed for the customer or is this mostly a operational cost savings benefit to Walmart? #walmart #ces2024
Today at #ces2024 we shared something that has never been done before. We’re bringing the convenience and immediacy of drone delivery to the majority of homes in one of the largest U.S. metros – Dallas Fort Worth. By the end of next year, we plan to provide 75% of the DFW population access to drone delivery. The delivery radius is up to 10 miles, and deliveries can happen as fast as 10 minutes. This is a huge step forward for the industry, and one we're proud to take with our on-demand drone delivery providers, Wing and Zipline. If you're in the DFW area, we can't wait for you to try it! https://lnkd.in/dbScJWFW
