What is reverse logistics?
  Forward logistics is simple. Receive a box, store it and ship it out.  Reverse logistics is a little more complex. 

Reverse logistics is defined as "all operations related to the reuse of products and materials."  Whether or not that means taking a product back, redeploying a product, or managing the processes of ensuring data privacy and environmental standards are met.

 

Why should I care?
  Without a clear reverse logistics strategy, any organization puts itself at a risk of loss.  Losses can come from areas like losing re-sell value on returned items, or from bearing the cost of unnecessary transportation and handling, or even from the lost opportunity that exists in selling the product that is returned.

This site is dedicated to my thoughts and ideas about reverse logistics, and managing secondary markets to sell and dispose of surplus, returned and end-of-life products..
