When Walmart CEO, Doug McMillon, needs a bottle of wine, he doesn’t have to wait long, thanks to a fleet of drones serving his neighborhood in Bentonville, Arkansas.
Speaking at today's Morgan Stanley Global Consumer & Retail conference in New York, McMillon told the story of when his wife was recently cooking chicken marsala and realized they didn’t have the right wine. “We had a drone delivery in less than 15 minutes,” he said. “Where I live now, I can get Walmart in home delivery into the refrigerator in our garage,” he said.
