A Roadmap to Reverse Logistics in Europe
Datamonitor, Aug 2003, Pages: 26
The brief assesses the European reverse logistics industry in 2003 and beyond.
2005 sees important EU legislation come into force which is already meaning major implications for manufacturers and retailers, as they seek to outsource their reverse logistics processes.
The logistics companies aiming to win this business will first need to understand the factors at work.
Scope of report:
Sector coverage: Logistics Operators
Geographical coverage: Pan-European
Report Highlights:
Europe's reverse logistics market is currently quite immature, with only around 15% of returns processes outsourced. As cost factors and imminent EU legislation prompt more manufacturers and retailers to review their reverse supply chains, they will be looking to outsource to a third party.
The logistics companies who can meet the increased demand with an efficient and affordable solution stand to cash in. Not all contracts will be profitable, but advances in technology will bring about greater efficiencies at lower cost.

Understand the current trends affecting the reverse logistics sector in Europe
