Reverse Logistics: Algorithmic Triage in the E-Commerce Returns Supply Chain : Liquidators, Landfills, and the Hidden Financial Drain of Digital Retail Operations.DE

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The frictionless promise of 'free returns' has created a multi-billion dollar blind spot in modern digital retail. When a consumer clicks a button to send back a perfectly good blender or a slightly ill-fitting sweater, they assume the item smoothly re-enters the warehouse inventory. The brutal reality of reverse logistics is a chaotic, hemorrhaging supply chain completely unequipped to handle individual, unboxed items.Processing a single return requires manual labor to inspect for damage, repackage, and relabel-a process so expensive that it often exceeds the value of the product itself. To stop the financial bleeding, major e-commerce platforms rely on algorithmic triage. Advanced software instantly calculates the depreciation and labor costs, frequently deciding that it is more profitable to sell massive pallets of functional goods to blind liquidation auctions for pennies on the dollar, or simply dump brand-new electronics directly into industrial landfills.Unbox the most toxic secret in digital commerce. Trace the staggering financial drain and environmental wreckage caused by the algorithmic disposal of perfectly viable consumer goods. Artikel-Nr. 9783565395354
