eCommerce Returns Management

Returns are a natural part of any eCommerce store, and whilst no business enjoys having to handle unwanted products, they are unfortunately unavoidable most of the time. According to research almost £500 billion worth of unwanted products are returned every year.

Luckily, though, over 90% of online shoppers say that they will make another purchase from a business if the returns process is simple and stress-free.

Our efficient returns management means your shoppers get an excellent customer experience time and time again. By letting us take the weight off of you, you can spend your time further developing your business instead of getting bombarded with customer emails and return requests.

Head Of Logistics
CharBroil – America’s Oldest Grill Brand

“Pointbid Logistics have been a real positive impact to our business, since we decided to outsource the bulk of our order fulfilment. Having experienced rapid sales growth, and the forecast for this to continue, we found it difficult to find premises that would be future-proof yet economical in the shorter term. By outsourcing warehousing and fulfilment to Pointbid we can shrink and grow our inventory as the seasons and demand dictate.
