Apptronik and GXO sign a letter of intent for Apollo trials

GXO said on Nov. 12, 2026 that it signed a letter of intent with Apptronik to expand live-warehouse trials of Apollo and to develop a robotics-as-a-service framework. The trials, covering picking, tote movement, packing, and sortation, are scheduled to begin in 2027. If they meet agreed performance and safety targets, the companies say they intend to move toward as many as 1,000 Apollo robots over four years, with a first North American deployment in late 2027; that figure is a conditional ceiling, not a purchase order.
