Wilson Sons Tests Drones for Port Deliveries—A Game Changer?

Wilson Sons is making history! The company has begun testing drones for vessel deliveries at the Port of Salvador—a first for Brazil’s port sector.

Partnering with Speedbird Aero, a UAV specialist, Wilson Sons aims to boost efficiency, cut costs, and enhance safety in port logistics.

Speedbird Aero was the first company in Brazil to receive ANAC approval for long-range drone operations, enabling Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) flights.

The company has already expanded drone operations to Singapore, a global leader in port technology, proving its potential on the world stage.

Wilson Sons has a strong track record of embracing innovation, from launching Brazil’s first maritime innovation hub to ranking among the most innovative firms.

Recognized as a leader in open innovation, Wilson Sons has been named a top company in Transport & Logistics for three consecutive years.

With cutting-edge technology at its core, Wilson Sons is redefining port logistics—and drones may soon become a standard in maritime operations. Is this the future of shipping?
