Our take

ZigZag Global is helping retailers streamline their returns process with a branded returns management portal that lets them create customer-friendly solutions without the need for costly in-house engineering. It's an efficient way to manage returns while maintaining a smooth customer experience.

Today, returns are a big challenge for retailers, with around 15% of items being returned across both physical and online stores. In eCommerce, that figure jumps to 40%. This puts pressure on retailers to manage reverse logistics effectively, ensuring they can keep customers satisfied while also maximizing the value of returned goods through restocking.

Since its founding in 2015, ZigZag has built an impressive roster of customers, including Dorothy Perkins, Oakley, and Selfridges & Co. Following its acquisition by NYSE-listed Global Blue, a leader in tax-free shopping, the company is set for a new phase of rapid growth, with access to Global Blue's expansive merchant network, ZigZag is on its way to scaling its impact even further.
