Improving reverse logistics for consumers & businesses alike

Idea in Software

Introduction

We aim to optimize reverse logistics processes, which currently result in trillions of dollars lost globally and astronomical amounts of waste each year.


Problem

Returns are inconvenient for consumers, expensive for businesses, & bad for the environment — largely because reverse logistics processes are fully disconnected from the forward flow of goods.


Opportunity

By building an Instacart-like network for retail goods, we can seamlessly integrate return pickups into local delivery routes. This eliminates the hassle of returns for consumers, reduces shipping and label costs for businesses that would otherwise absorb the losses, and benefits the environment by cutting down on excess packaging and consolidating deliveries at a more local scale.
