Adapting to the needs of e-commerce

GEODIS has set up a new service dedicated to the management of product return in order to support one of its e-commerce customers in the north-east of Madrid, Spain. With the rise of e-commerce, more and more products, including large ones, are being returned by consumers.

This site in Torija allows GEODIS to optimize product returns: this line of work is known as “reverse logistics”.

Decarbonizing logistics

Thanks to technologically advanced equipment and optimized processes, GEODIS handles the management of product unloading, classification, outbound flows to external repair, and removal or liquidation of outbound flows to fulfillment activities in case of sellable or unsellable products. When necessary, GEODIS hires accredited service providers who use sustainable methods for product destruction.

Reverse logistics is essential for our clients as it allows them to improve customer satisfaction, reduce operational costs, and minimize environmental impact by optimizing the management of product returns, repairs, and recycling.
