SweetWater Technologies, established in 2024, is a pioneering franchise in the agricultural sector, specializing in drone-based crop application and agronomic solutions. Headquartered in Wyanet, Illinois, the company was founded by Chad Gripp, a sixth-generation farmer with over two decades of experience in custom farming and application services.
The franchise model was launched in February 2024, offering entrepreneurial-minded agricultural professionals a turnkey opportunity to diversify and enhance their farm enterprises.
SweetWater Technologies provides a comprehensive suite of services, including precision drone application, performance crop inputs, and agronomic consulting. Their proprietary DRONEZONE product line is specifically formulated for ultra-low-volume drone applications, ensuring efficient and effective crop treatment.
