Right now, many retailers are bloated with inventory and excess returns after the holidays and due to supply chain issues as well as inflation. It’s time to get creative with excess inventory rather than turning products over to liquidators and resellers to burn or dispose of it in a landfill. 

Channel Control is partnered with the biggest retailers in the US and Canada—and has been growing its relationships very quickly due to their unique approach. Last year, they (CCM) kept over 80 million products out of landfills by taking excess returns or inventory and selling it directly to consumers through their chain of physical stores. Their end-to-end solution is fully transparent, and retailers use them to maximize recovery while tracking their inventory through each purchase to quantify sustainability metrics of what was kept out of landfills.

On January 16th, Chris Homewood, Channel Control Merchants (CCM) CEO shared how retailers can sustainably handle their returns, what it means to shop for second chance items and how it can have a positive impact on the environment while also saving Americans a ton of money. His insight and experience were unique and comes from relationships with the biggest names in retail.
