# Symbotic System at United States: deployment

Canonical ID: `0964b465-6e9c-4b70-b022-b85a150f122c`

Walmart has deployed Symbotic's autonomous warehouse robotics system across its US regional distribution center network under a long-term strategic partnership. Symbotic's AI-powered robots handle inbound and outbound case movement, palletizing, and inventory sorting using a high-density automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) with a fleet of mobile robots. A full-scale deployment began at Walmart's Brooksville, Florida DC in 2021 (announced May 2021). In December 2022 Walmart and Symbotic signed a $1.4 billion master services agreement to expand the system to all 42 of Walmart's regional distribution centers, making Walmart the anchor customer for Symbotic's national rollout.
