This talk illustrates the complexity of issues that influence company’s efforts to embed sustainability into their supply chains. We will use a series of academic cases as the setting for this discussion. We aim for a dialogue on how these issues might extend to the sustainability dimensions of reverse logistics.

This session will be an interactive forum to discuss the challenges inherent in seasonal returns management and solutions for retailers and manufacturers including:

• Retailer and Manufacturer collaboration opportunities
• Alternatives for disposition
• Industry trends for redeployment and repurposing

This engaging dialog will deliver the student and industry perspective from their investigation while soliciting input from the supply chain leaders in attendance.
