About

Reverse logistics is an academic concept and research field dedicated to the systematic study of the processes, systems, and strategies associated with the movement of products and materials from their point of consumption or use back towards the point of origin or appropriate disposition. This domain investigates the planning, implementation, and control of efficient, cost-effective flows for purposes including returns management, remanufacturing, refurbishment, recycling, and disposal, thereby distinguishing itself from traditional forward logistics. Its significance lies in enabling value recovery, mitigating environmental impact, ensuring regulatory compliance, and enhancing overall supply chain performance within the context of sustainability and circular economy principles.
