From a local address to reverse logistics
Parcel processing is already available within our local addresses in seventeen European countries using our local addresses. Part of this essential service for expanding online shops is to address specific and individual needs – From immediate record keeping and reporting, through to the storage of goods, and the thorough inspection of packages.
Expandeco rents a local address, which the online shop specifies on its website in the terms and conditions, and in the complaint form.
In the case of a problem or complaint, the customer can send the goods back via any courier company or postal service within their country.
The package is recorded in the internal CRM system. The information is then immediately uploaded to the client interface, where the online shop has full control over returns and the ability to communicate directly with the collection point and manage the collection of shipments according to current needs.
We temporarily store the received packages and send them as a consolidated shipment directly to the online shop’s central warehouse according to an agreed frequency.
The benefits of reverse logistics
Interesting facts about the Dutch market
There are on average 2 bicycles for every Dutch person. In addition to the classic delivery of parcels by couriers, bicycles are a popular way of delivering smaller parcels. Just as their network of cycling paths is well developed, Dutch e-commerce is also extensive thanks to the strong availability of the internet and the superior services of local online shops.
In addition to the daily use of bicycles, they are concerned about the environmental responsibility of brands in protecting the environment. Evidence of their strong environmental sensibility is also evidenced, for example, by their innovative but still design-led packaging methods.
The Dutch like the option of paying via the local payment gateway iDeal. Already when placing an order, they expect information about its processing time, usually with a delivery date as early as the next day, or with the possibility of delivery in the evening or with a personal pick-up.
Especially for the fashion sector, in addition to the rapid growth of the online world, the rapid growth of Dutch height is also interesting. Their average height has increased by up to 20 cm in the last 200 years. Dutch men are even among the tallest inhabitants of the planet.
