The Chinese robot vendor Pudu Robotics today opened its new U.S. headquarters in Dallas, calling the move part of its global strategic expansion since first entering the U.S. market in 2018.
According to Pudu, the office will serve as a central hub for nationwide and cross‑regional operations across the Americas, due to its well-developed logistics and supply chain infrastructure, a business‑friendly environment, and access to a broad base of enterprise customers. Its central location will also allow Pudu more efficient coverage across both North America and South America.
Meanwhile, as part of its broader infrastructure optimization, the company said it has also transitioned its Santa Clara office into a streamlined logistics support function outpost and established a dual‑warehouse system on both coasts to support nationwide delivery in the U.S.
Pudu says its products address the specific labor and efficiency needs of the Americas market across four categories:
- Service Delivery: BellaBot and BellaBot Pro, for hospitality and retail interaction.
- Commercial Cleaning: PUDU CC1 series, the PUDU MT1 series designed for large-scale dry cleaning, and the recently launched PUDU BG1 series—an AI-native large scrubber-dryer robot built for heavy-duty environments.
- Industrial Delivery: The PUDU T-series robots provide versatile logistics support with payload capacities ranging from 150kg to 600kg, streamlining warehouse and factory workflows.
- General embodied AI: PUDU D5 series expands how robots interact with and adapt to complex human environments.
