• 2025-09-23 - Partnership - Gatik and Loblaw sign five-year expansion deal for 50 autonomous trucks

  The agreement calls for 20 autonomous trucks with next-generation sensors by the end of 2025 and another 30 by the end of 2026 across Loblaw’s Greater Toronto Area distribution network. The fleet is intended to begin with safety drivers and later transition to freight-only operations, serving more than 300 Loblaw stores and moving goods between regional distribution sites. Loblaw made a strategic investment in Gatik, while cold-chain-ready trucks and Gatik Driver software are positioned for frequent grocery and household deliveries; the announcement describes planned scale-up rather than all 50 trucks already deployed.
