There is a new, easier way to grocery shop in China. The company Moby-Mart will use an unmanned supermarket to offer easy grocery shopping in the region. This new idea is a collaboration between a Swedish group and a Chinese university. The biggest benefit of this new idea is the prospect of having a grocery store that can be moved and does not require anyone to run it. Moby-Mart plans on having customers interact with their services with a phone app. While currently unavailable, Moby-Mart has big plans, including making their stores self-driving.
Key Takeaways:
- Though currently in the prototyping phase, China is designing a wheeled mini-mart, that will be unmanned, called Moby-Mart.
- The innovation results from a collaboration between a Swedish company and a Chinese University.
- The plan is for Moby-Mart to receive drone deliveries to keep stock levels up.
