How to optimise your delivery returns with Cocolis?

20 July 2023

As we mentioned in our previous articles, optimising your delivery returns can be a real headache. At Cocolis, we understand these challenges and are here to offer you an economical and eco-friendly solution to manage delivery returns more efficiently!


Definition of delivery returns

Delivery returns refer to products that have been delivered but are then returned for various reasons. They can be caused by: order errors, damaged or defective products, issues related to size or colour, or simply because the customer changed their mind.

Good returns management is essential to maintain a positive relationship with your customers and ensure their satisfaction. It involves establishing clear and transparent policies regarding return conditions, deadlines, and procedures to follow.

By offering a responsive customer service and implementing the right procedures, you minimise the negative impact these returns can have on your business. Feel free to check out our article on how to turn returns management into an opportunity for your business!


Cocolis and how it works

At Cocolis, we have developed an innovative approach that allows you to optimise delivery returns. Our platform connects individuals and professionals who are planning to travel with those who need to send a parcel. Instead of using traditional delivery services, you take advantage of journeys already planned by our co-transporters to handle returns in an economical and eco-friendly way.

When a customer wants to return a parcel, they can simply hand it over to one of our users who is heading in the same direction. The co-transporter then carries the parcel with them on their journey. This allows you to avoid extra shipping costs and reduce CO2 emissions related to delivery returns!

Cocolis also helps you reduce your return rate. By offering your customers a practical and economical solution to return their parcels, you improve their shopping experience. If your customer has enjoyed a pleasant delivery experience, there’s a good chance they’ll buy from you again. Quality of service should be a priority to boost your business and strengthen your brand image.

By optimising your delivery returns with Cocolis, you gain in logistical efficiency.
