Wonder partners Zipline to launch drone meal deliveries in Texas

Wonder has joined forces with autonomous delivery company Zipline to roll out on-demand drone food deliveries in Texas, the US.

The service is scheduled to begin in January 2027.

The move comes ahead of Wonder's planned Texas expansion next year.

The company said it is building the infrastructure needed to support long-term growth in the state and create a drone delivery network that can scale.

That preparation includes new storefronts, kitchen fit-outs, logistics systems and ordering technology.

Dallas will be the first city where the service starts. Wonder said most of its Texas locations are expected to offer drone delivery by the end of 2027.

Wonder North America CEO Tony Hoggett said: "Partnering with Zipline allows us to push the boundaries of what's possible, combining our innovative food technology platform with world-class drone technology to reach customers in Texas through faster, more convenient delivery and serve them in entirely new ways."

Zipline's electric drones are designed to collect orders autonomously and fly them directly to customers' homes.

It has completed more than 2.5 million autonomous deliveries worldwide across healthcare, food and retail.
