Wing to Invest $125M in U.S. Manufacturing Footprint

Delivery drone firm Wing is allocating $125 million to bolster its manufacturing presence in the United States over the next two years, as announced in a November 6 statement. The investment includes the establishment of a 15,000 square-foot facility in Fort Worth, Texas, which officially opened in early 2026. In addition to this, Wing intends to scale up its research and development, as well as engineering operations, in California.

Adam Woodworth, the CEO of Wing, emphasized that drone delivery has evolved into a global reality, fueled by strong demand from clients and partners. He added that the United States represents a key area for growth, and this substantial investment underscores the company's commitment to advancing American aviation innovation while simultaneously strengthening its commercial standing.

Currently, Wing drones are primarily responsible for delivering goods to Walmart stores in major metro areas, including Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas-Fort Worth, Orlando, and Houston. The company aims to extend its services to 270 Walmart locations by the conclusion of 2027, with new delivery zones encompassing Cincinnati, Denver, Los Angeles, Seattle, Miami, and beyond.
