Returns in the Omni-Channel
• Retailers and manufacturers are increasingly finding that their sales
are distributed across many different channels and supply chains.
This creates greater complexity and becomes a difficult problem to
solve efficiently. Additionally, issues such as assert recovery and the
secondary market further complicate the returns mission. End-of-life
concerns and new regulation impact reverse logistics processes.
• In this session Dr. Dale S. Rogers of Rutgers University will describe
the new realities surrounding returns. He will explain relevant
regulation, end-of-life issues and changes in the secondary market.
Integrative strategies for managing returns across multiple channels
will be discussed.

Secondary Markets
• Secondary markets are effective in diverting a large number
of products from landfills, creating numerous jobs, resulting in
substantial economic value in the process.
• Although not reflected in current government metrics, a
conservative estimate is that the secondary market represents
2.88 percent of the 2012 U.S. Gross
Domestic Product.
