Executive Summary

Returns are a costly and growing headache for retailers. As e-commerce continues to grab a greater share of the retail market, the overall retail return rate will continue to climb.
Customers increasingly consider fast, free and easy returns to be a basic right of online shopping, making return costs one of the retail industry’s most expensive problems.
Shoppers returned $396 billion worth of purchases in 2018 – brick-and-mortar and online, according to the National Retail Federation (NRF).
To control costs and improve the customer experience, retailers are continually looking for technology solutions that identify the root causes of the return by expanding their return-centric knowledge about suppliers and customers.
Newmine’s Chief Returns Officer® is an AI-powered returns reduction platform, which helps retailers manage and reduce returns by collecting internal and external data, incorporating data science for analysis, alerting the relevant teams to root causes in near real time, managing resolutions and measuring success.
