In October, Walgreens conducted the very first drone-based delivery from a store to a local customer in Christianburg, Virginia. The delivery included Tylenol, Halls cough drops, tissues, Emergen-C and bottled water. Walgreens partnered with a subsidiary of Google’s parent company Alphabet, called Wing Aviation. This delivery made Walgreens the first retailer to offer on-demand drone delivery of products. The location was selected by the aviation company. Customers in the selected area have more than 100 products to choose from for drone delivery, as well as six pre-packs.
