Gatik CEO and co-founder Gautam Narang shares the company’s success as he announces partnership with Georgia-Pacific, unveils details about company business model and its groundbreaking vehicles.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

A network of nearly three dozen Sam’s Clubs in the Dallas area will start getting deliveries from self-driving trucks 24 hours a day, seven days a week, autonomous technology startup Gatik announced Tuesday. <\/p>\n

“By replacing traditional tractor trailers with autonomous box trucks, our solution will establish a more responsive and flexible logistics network, increasing the cadence of delivery runs and the flow of goods, while reducing logistics costs and enabling near real-time inventory fulfillment,” Gatik wrote in a blog post. <\/p>\n

The fleet of autonomous trucks will deliver Georgia-Pacific goods such as paper towels, napkins, and tableware along “known, repeatable routes,” using technology that is “purpose built for urban, semi-urban, and highway environments,” the company said . <\/p>\n

Walmart isn’t the only retailer to adopt autonomous technology, as Kroger partnered with Nuro to deliver fresh groceries with the company’s completely electric self-driving vehicles. <\/p>\n

“Both companies envision a future where autonomous trucks tackle the long-haul portion of driving, easing some of the burden of the increasing demand for freight while also enabling drivers to shift into short-haul jobs that enhance the occupation’s quality of life,” Uber wrote Tuesday. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
