Coming on the heels of Kroger and Instacart’s virtual convenience store rollout, Robomart is betting other grocery retailers are angling to join the instant-needs delivery trend.
The startup, which launched commercially this summer in West Hollywood, California, is offering a way for retailers to plug into a hyper-local service that boasts speedy delivery times and a curated assortment of goods. What’s unique about Robomart is that it brings the store to the shopper, allowing them to select goods once the vehicle arrives and then charging them through its RFID-based, checkout-free system.
