Collection Point for Returning Goods

From the local Greek address to the logistics of returns

The whole process of launching reverse logistics in Greece looks like the following:

Expandeco rents a local address in Greece, which the online shop indicates on the website, in the terms and conditions or in the complaint form.

In case of a problem or dissatisfaction, the customer can send the goods via any courier company or via the Greek Post within the 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.

Reverse logistics in Greece

Considerable energy needs to be devoted to the logistics processes that complicate delivery to the islands. The price for transport on the mainland is different, transport to the islands is usually more expensive. For the Greeks, time does not play a big role, they live with the philosophy that tomorrow is also a day. That's why you're more likely to surprise them with an early delivery. 

The credibility of the online shop is greatly enhanced by the Greek return address, which is a requirement for customers to make a purchase. Locally known carriers also contribute to higher conversion rates. So Greek customers tend to check their return options before they buy. Online shops with a local collection point thus have a competitive advantage in the speed of processing and handling returns.

In Greek culture, "on time" can mean 20, 30 or even 45 minutes late. Nevertheless, the delay is usually accompanied by a heartfelt apology and a legitimate excuse.
