Returned items sit idle on their way back to the warehouse, effectively unsellable. This delay translates into missed sales opportunities as well as potential customer frustration due to lower product availability or even stockouts.
At the same time, inaccurate forecasting of return stock can lead to suboptimal purchasing, excess inventory and waste. A costly and unsustainable practice, as consumers and regulators are pushing for more responsible business models.
Imagine accurately predicting the inflow of your returns and selling that inventory even before it hits your shelves. Imagine planning your purchasing to avoid overproduction, armed with clear data on what’s coming back.
That’s the power of selling “virtual stock,” and it can be a real game-changer for your e-commerce operation.
In this context, virtual stock refers to returned merchandise that’s currently in transit but still perfectly sellable. Instead of waiting for these items to be physically processed and restocked, you’re leveraging data to predict their availability and offer them for sale in advance.
Selling on virtual stock offers several key advantages for e-commerce retailers. You can optimize your inventory, reduce waste, and increase profitability – all while meeting the growing demand for sustainable business practices.
