""We see this as building our own autonomous marketplace," Ahmed said."
""That is something that is pretty unique in this space, an autonomous marketplace for on-demand delivery using self-driving robots.""
""store on wheels""
Robomart unveiled the Robomart RM5, a level-four autonomous vehicle that carries up to 500 pounds and contains 10 individual lockers for customer orders. The locker architecture enables batch ordering so a single robot can handle multiple deliveries simultaneously. Robomart plans to operate an autonomous marketplace by partnering with retailers who open storefronts on its app, using a flat $3 delivery fee per order to undercut existing platforms. The company will begin onboarding retailers in Austin, Texas, ahead of a service launch later this year. Robomart began in 2017 and piloted an autonomous "store on wheels" in 2020.
