Walmart is launching dozens of high-tech warehouses staffed entirely by robots to help it meet the staggering increase in demand for online orders.
The automated robots will be used to pick frozen and refrigerated food in small local warehouses across the US, which will sit within or next to existing stores.
The US’ largest physical retailer is aiming to dramatically decrease picking times for online orders which have shot up a whopping 79 per cent year-on-year during its most recent quarter.
