(ECNS) -- Chinese robot makers are accelerating overseas expansion, with logistics robots becoming common in warehouses and other business settings abroad.
At Geek+’s global manufacturing headquarters in Hefei, Anhui Province, dozens of robots are undergoing final tests before shipment to Europe.
Administrative manager Lyu Yan said more than 70% of the company’s products are exported, covering over 40 countries and regions.
Equipped with self-developed intelligent scheduling systems, the robots transform warehouse logistics from a "person-to-goods" model to a "goods-to-person" model, improving efficiency and reducing errors during peak shopping seasons. Geek+ robots are now used in retail, automotive, electronics and catering.
More Chinese robot companies are expanding abroad. Hefei-based Zerith recently completed its first overseas shipment, sending three wheeled humanoid robots to Malaysia; Unitree Robotics reported overseas revenue of 732 million yuan ($102 million) in 2025, accounting for 43.65% of its total revenue.
Customs data show China exported 10.38 million robots worth 19.99 billion yuan in the first five months of 2026 to more than 150 countries and regions.
