“…In the extant literature, the mechanism of how this happens is often not explicated. However, the research shows that CLSC processes do contain information that can be used to improve products [65]. This information can be sourced from qualitative feedback on product design [63,64] or through systematic quantitative data collected during the return transaction.…”

Product returns are a source of valuable information that can be used by firms and supply chains to improve products, services, and decision making. However, firms are struggling to maximize the value of this information, and the extant scholarly literature is scattered among various research streams. Using a systematic literature review, the state-of-the-art of product returns informational value research and limitations in the current body of work were examined and future directions for research suggested. Three types of informational value were identified, namely operational information, product related information, and customer-related information, along with four value-creating factors, namely strategic information system (IS) decisions, organizational learning, information sharing, and technological solutions. Implications for practitioners are discussed. Lastly, the limitations are discussed, along with recommendations and directions for future research work.

“…This information can be sourced from qualitative feedback on product design [63,64] or through systematic quantitative data collected during the return transaction. However, as a recent case study [65] illustrates, sometimes products are returned too late for firms in high speed industries to properly learn lessons from them.…”

“…Based on the current situation of the apparel system, which is still primarily based on extensive resource use, i.e., a 'take-make-dispose system' with often single feedback loops in terms of 'reuse' and 'recycling', as well as the external developments affecting the production system of the apparel industry in the future, it is important to integrate value adding concepts with the aim of maximizing value creation over the entire lifecycle of apparel with dynamic recovery of value from different types of return over time (Guide & Van Wassenhove, 2009). Value adding concepts from the forward and reverse supply chain system that may leverage value creation can be classified into 'product design characteristics', product-service concepts', 'integrated supply chain processes', 'partnerships and collaboration', 'organizational characteristics' and 'IT solutions' (Koppius et al, 2014;Schenkel et al, 2015). Furthermore, regulation plays an important role.…”

“…The five above mentioned concepts or approaches (product design, product-service, supply chain processes, partnerships and collaboration, IT solutions) are interrelated (Schenkel et al, 2015), constituting a complex system that differs significantly in structure and operations from the traditional linearly organized apparel industry. The transformation process towards the development and management of value adding circular clothing systems is assumed to benefit from innovative leadership approaches (Defee et al, 2009), responsibility sharing (Jacobs & Subramanian, 2012), cross-functional integration and organizational alignment (Mollenkopf et al, 2011).…”

“…Furthermore, revenues may increase by engaging in ecological activities. For instance, reuse or refurbishing of returned products provides possibilities for deriving information about product use and customer behaviour which may induce further product improvements (Schenkel et al 2015). Moreover, economic opportunities arise from an improvement of the corporate image (Hart 1995), and from selling waste products.…”
