The Best Place To Set Up A Drone Delivery Headquarters: Middle Tennessee

With the Federal Aviation Administration’s policies and regulations adapting for future drone and UAS operations, it’s important for companies and organizations that utilize drones to find the perfect place to establish their Operation Headquarters. This article explains the top 3 reasons why Middle Tennessee should be the first place that you should consider.

1. One Of The Fastest Growing Areas In The Country

The Middle Tennessee area, especially cities like Nashville, Clarksville, and Murfreesboro, have shown tremendous growth over the last few years. With a cheaper cost of living than places like Los Angeles and Seattle, the Middle Tennessee area has seen a huge influx of residents and businesses that want to capitalize on the area. For drone service providers, specifically drone delivery providers, a huge opportunity arises to network with these organizations and their consumers.

2. The Availability Of Large Plots Of Land

When setting up an UAS business, especially drone delivery, organizations will need to have a pretty large piece of land to develop their headquarters. Although cities like Nashville are in major metropolitan areas, the outskirts of those areas actually have vast amounts of undeveloped land. With the price per acre, being quite affordable, drone businesses can purchase enough land to develop landing pads, testing centers, and whatever else is needed to run their day to day operations.

3. A Great Pool Of UAS Professionals To Recruit

The Middle Tennessee is home to three military units that specialize in UAS Operations, 101st Aviation Regiment(FT. Campbell), 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment(FT. Campbell), and the Tennessee Air National Guard 118th Wing. These UAS professionals would be great assets to any organization because of their knowledge of airspace and beyond visual line of sight operations. Additionally, a lot of servicemembers are tired of deploying, so they would rather choose to work for a organization at home versus the international contractor jobs.
