Drazena Ivicic, Senior Manager Global Product Marketing, Intershop explains the “ideal world” approach retailers should take to returns in the post-Christmas rush.
For eCommerce entrepreneurs and executives who want to sell more
Heikki Haldre, CEO and founder of virtual fitting room provider Fits.me discusses how e-commerce businesses can handle the issue of returns over the Christmas period
Although it’s not one of the more important times of year for retail sectors, with Christmas soon on the horizon, October can be used as another important key indicator of the strength of the UK retail sector.

Seasonal sales during the peak period in the run-up to Christmas can account for up to 50% of a retailer’s annual profits, highlighting just how critical the festive period is for retailers of all types and sizes.
