Reverse logistics is an integral part of circular economy referring to a supply chain management that transports goods from customers back to the manufacturers or sellers. It includes recycling, refurbishment, reselling of restocked items, and reclamation of raw materials. The process of reverse logistics also consists of the sale and management of returned and surplus machines and equipment. There are different steps involved in reverse logistics, which include processing the returns, dealing with returns, and maintaining the movement of returns, repair, and recycle. It helps to maintain an efficient flow of goods, create value, complete the product life cycle, reduce costs, and decrease risks. Reverse logistics also offers greater customer satisfaction, improved band image, enhanced sustainability, reduction of waste, and faster and better service.
