Deployment
Galbot G1 at FamilyMart Store (Beijing Zhongguancun)
Galbot's flagship wheeled dual-arm bionic humanoid on a 360-degree omnidirectional base, standing approximately 173 cm, designed for dexterous manipulation in retail, pharmacy, logistics, and household tasks. Galbot has raised approximately $1 billion across three funding rounds through March 2026, with backers including China National AI Fund, CITIC Group, SAIC Motor, and Sinopec; the company is preparing for a Hong Kong Stock Exchange listing.
A verified commercial deployment at a FamilyMart convenience store in Beijing's Zhongguancun district began approximately April 2026, with the G1 handling roughly 1,000 SKUs and four staff retained alongside it.
