- The expansion supports Walmart's broader strategy of combining stores, e-commerce and technology-enabled fulfillment.
Walmart announced on Thursday, November 5, 2026, that it has signed a new multi-year agreement with Zipline to add 300 drone delivery sites across the United States. The retailer said in its corporate announcement that the program has completed more than 2 million deliveries since Walmart began working with Zipline in 2021.
Walmart stock traded at 115.27 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 17:33 CET on Thursday, November 5, 2026, 0.56 percent below the Xetra close of Wednesday, November 4, at 115.92 euros. The quote was 1.44 percent below the 116.96-euro Lang & Schwarz quote at 14:07 CET in the previous report, a separate comparison from the Xetra daily move.
Faster fulfillment reaches more households
Eligible customers can order tens of thousands of items through the Walmart app or Walmart.com, with delivery in as fast as 30 minutes where the service is available. Orders can arrive in a front yard, backyard or driveway, and eligible addresses can also order through the Zipline app.
Walmart said 90 percent of Americans live within 10 miles of one of its stores. That footprint gives the retailer a potential distribution base for rapid fill-in purchases without relying solely on large fulfillment centers. The company did not provide a timetable for the site additions or a financial target for the agreement.
The drone service is one element of Walmart's broader same-day delivery offering, which also includes 30-minute-or-less delivery in select markets, one-hour Express delivery, on-demand delivery within three hours and scheduled delivery windows. The expansion may improve convenience and store utilization, while execution will depend on customer adoption, operating costs, regulatory requirements and the pace of site openings.
