Kroger Ends its Unmanned-Vehicle Grocery Delivery Pilot Program in Arizona

Supermarket giant Kroger said it soon will end a pilot program in which more than 2,000 grocery deliveries were made in self-driving vehicles from a store in Scottsdale, Arizona.

The program, launched last August, featured deliveries in autonomous vehicles from robotics company Nuro from the Kroger-owned Fry’s store at 7770 E. McDowell Road for customers in ZIP code 85257.

The companies described it as the nation’s first program featuring deliveries to the general public from fully unmanned vehicles.
