Walmart teams up with Zipline for U.S. drone delivery service Walmart said in a statement: "We recently announced we're exploring how drones can deliver items in a way that's convenient, safe and fast. In our latest initiative, we are teaming up with Zipline to launch a first-of-its-kind drone delivery operation in the U.S. The new service will make on-demand deliveries of select health and wellness products with the potential to expand to general merchandise. Trial deliveries will take place near Walmart's headquarters here in Northwest Arkansas using Zipline's proprietary technology which is, simply put, really cool. Zipline will operate from a Walmart store and can service a 50-mile radius, which is about the size of the state of Connecticut. And, not only does their launch and release system allow for quick on-demand delivery in under an hour, but it also eliminates carbon emissions, which lines up perfectly with our sustainability goals. The operation will likely begin early next year, and, if successful, we'll look to expand."
