Join us on 20th June at The Hoxton Holborn, for TheIndustry.fashion LIVE! to hear from specialists and gain practical advice on how you can transform returns from a profit drain to a profit driver.
About 30% of ecommerce fashion orders are returned, according to global strategists Roland Berger, and in 2022 some £7bn worth of online-purchased fashion was returned by UK consumers. With the true cost of returns estimated to be around £20 for a £30 item, and many returned items ending up in landfill, this is a problem that cannot be ignored. But it’s also a problem that can be turned into a huge growth and efficiency opportunity and this event will explain how.
