Walmart Commits $6B More to Symbotic, Expanding Robotics Automation Across 25 US Regional Distribution Centers

Symbotic announced Walmart has committed an additional ~$6B over several years to deploy its supply-chain automation platform across 25 US regional distribution centers. The rollout extends Symbotic's BreakPack each-picking system, SymMicro micro-fulfillment, and the company's ML-driven orchestration software — which Walmart EVP Rob Montgomery credited for e-commerce inventory handling, storage density, and throughput gains. It builds on a decade-long partnership that began with a single product offering.
