One day, you'll be able to order a Moby right to your door. 。
The company also hints in a video that in future, customers will be able to order a Moby to their exact location.。If the store starts to run low on goods, it will be able to drive its way back to base to be re-stocked, or get replenished from another nearby Moby Mart.。 The Moby Mart is planned to have drones on its roof, which will take off with smaller items to bring them right to your doorstep.。
