Walmart drone delivery: Is it coming to Orlando?

Walmart has filed an application to build a "drone nest" in Seminole County, where it would house, charge, and repair some of its delivery drones. It was included on the agenda for the Seminole County Development Review Committee. Walmart did not attend the meeting, a county spokesperson told FOX35. However, Walmart announced its pilot drone delivery program in 2025 with initial launches planned for Atlanta, Charlotte, Houston, Orlando, and Tampa. Start dates for the Orlando market have not been announced. A spokesperson for Walmart told FOX 35 that there are not additional details to announce yet. According to the release, the drone program, in partnership with Wing, would be able to conduct deliveries within 6 miles of a Walmart store.  Walmart said in its release that it plans to expand the service to 100 of its stores.
