This combination builds on Walmart\u2019s leadership in adopting emerging technologies to meet growing consumer expectations and enhance the last-mile delivery process. The multi-city service will enable Walmart customers to place orders of groceries and other popular items online for door-to-door autonomous delivery directly to customers\u2019 homes.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;We&#8217;re excited to expand our autonomous delivery efforts in three new markets alongside Argo and Ford,\u201d said Tom Ward, senior vice president of last mile delivery, Walmart U.S. \u201cThis collaboration will further our mission to get products to the homes of our customers with unparalleled speed and ease, and in turn, will continue to pave the way for autonomous delivery.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe commercial service will be available to Walmart customers within defined service areas of the three markets and will expand over time, with initial integration testing slated to begin later this year. As consumer expectations continue to shift to next-day or same-day delivery \u2014 especially in the urban core where there is a higher concentration of deliveries \u2014 this collaboration will drive key learnings in how autonomous technology can enhance customer experiences, while also optimizing logistics and operations.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cArgo and Ford are aggressively preparing for large-scale autonomous vehicle operations across a broad footprint of U.S. cities,\u201d said Scott Griffith, CEO, Ford Autonomous Vehicles &amp; Mobility Businesses. \u201cPairing Walmart\u2019s retail and e-commerce leadership with Argo and Ford\u2019s self-driving operations across these multiple cities marks a significant step toward scaling a commercial goods delivery service that will ultimately power first-to-scale business efficiencies and enable a great consumer experience.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nArgo\u2019s cloud-based infrastructure, which is designed to work seamlessly and efficiently with partners\u2019 business operations, will integrate with Walmart\u2019s online ordering platform to route orders and schedule package deliveries to customers\u2019 homes.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nIn addition to testing self-driving technology in Pittsburgh, Detroit and Palo Alto, Calif., Argo and Ford have been operating in Miami and Washington, D.C., since 2018 and in Austin since 2019, to build autonomous ride-hailing and delivery services and establish the necessary real estate footprint and commercial fleet management capabilities, including fueling, servicing, and cleaning of self-driving vehicles, to support the customer and keep fleets running. Walmart previously tested with Ford in Miami in 2018.\n<\/p>\n<p><b><i>About Ford Motor Company<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) is a global company based in Dearborn, Mich., that is committed to helping build a better world, where every person is free to move and pursue their dreams.
