Flytrex, an autonomous drone food delivery service, has announced the opening of a drone manufacturing and maintenance facility in Pilot Point, Texas, as the company accelerates its push to build a network of 60 delivery sites across the Dallas-Fort Worth metro by mid-2027.
The facility – capable of assembling thousands of drones annually – will serve as the operational backbone for the company’s expansion in the region, building on recent commercial partnerships with DoorDash and Uber Eats, two of the largest food delivery platforms in the world.
The news comes shortly after Flytrex unveiled the Sky2, its next-generation delivery drone with an industry-leading 8.8 lb payload capacity, which will be assembled at the new Pilot Point facility. The nearly 8,000 square foot facility includes a closed warehouse as well as a secure outdoor area for test flights. [Read more…] about Flytrex opens drone manufacturing facility in Dallas
