Drone company Flytrex is expanding its drone delivery program in Fayetteville, North Carolina after getting approved for a Federal Aviation Administration permit to fly, reports Grocery Dive. The service will deliver orders from Walmart and local stores that are placed through a Flytrex app, which will then provide updates on the delivery’s status.
This permit allows Flytrex to make deliveries up to a mile away from retailers, which puts more than 2,000 homes in the service delivery area.
A spokesperson from Flytrex said it expects to make hundreds of deliveries every week, according to the report. Full Story
