Walmart and Wing are set to significantly expand drone delivery services across the US, adding 100 additional stores primarily in Southeast metro areas. Wing's CEO reports that thousands of customers are already utilizing the service weekly, predominantly for essential items like baby wipes and eggs. The success of the drone delivery model indicates strong interest in rapid, on-demand delivery from Walmart. Drones can carry payloads of up to five pounds, indicating they are suited for many grocery items but not heavier ones like milk.
Millions more households will soon be able to try drone delivery, as Walmart and Wing announce their largest expansion yet to 100 more US stores.
Thousands of customers are turning to the service each week to purchase everyday items like groceries or household supplies.
Wing's drones have a payload of five pounds, meaning they can carry about half of the 120,000 items typically found at a Walmart Supercenter.
The baby wipes one makes total sense to me. It's a problem when you run out, said Wing CEO Adam Woodworth.
