According to the National Retail Foundation, customers return $850B worth of products asking for refunds. Many of those goods end up in second hand shops, along with discontinued, excess, or out of season apparel. And today is National Thrift Shop Day, celebrating stores who help keep those goods from landfills, and shoppers who are looking for bargains.

Good Morning #Canada
Prior to #Retirement, my last decade in business was spent in #ReverseLogistics managing major retail and manufacturer clients. Reverse logistics is the process of managing customer returns with the objective of recapturing value or ensure proper disposal. It covers activities like processing, restocking where possible, repairs, recycling, refurbishing, and resale. This company in Mississauga is relatively small in comparison to a Costco or Walmart reverse logistics warehouse but it provides a glimpse at a little known industry that deals with $880B USD in annual returns worldwide. The industry is about to enter its busiest period as consumers will return over 10% of Christmas purchases, close to 30% for clothing. In the 1st 3 months of 2026 some remarketing B2B auction sites (representing Costco, Walmart, Home Depot, Target, etc) will be liquidating 100+ tractor trailer loads per day, including stuff you're about to unwrap in a few days.

Lori Ann LaRocco reveals how the economic impact of tariffs is reshaping retail returns. As prices rise, efficient return processing becomes essential, allowing retailers to resell items quickly and reduce costs. With 75% of consumers interested in re-commerce, the market for refurbished goods is booming. By 2024, total returns could reach $890 billion, highlighting a trend towards sustainability and efficiency in retail.

I'm a bit of a subject matter expert on the #SecondaryMarket as the last 20 years of my career was spent in #ReverseLogistics and building remarketing channels. From 2012 to 2021, I was in business development for the largest B2B marketplace for "risk inventory," which included customer returns, excess and discontinued inventory, and trade-ins. That marketplace sold 100 full trailers every day of returns and excess inventory and had about a 10% share of the market.

Online shopping returns cost retailers billions of dollars, pump tonnes of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and dump billions of pounds of waste into landfills, according to a global plastics cleanup company report. #OnlineReturns #CleanHub #goTRG #RetailReturns #EcommerceReturns #EnvironmentalImpact #ClimateChange #Landfills #WasteManagement #CircularEconomy #ReverseLogistics #ReturnsManagement
