Reverse logistics

Even when goods are returned, we maintain full control over the supply chain.

Even when goods are returned, our services don’t stop.
An efficient logistics chain doesn’t end with delivery. Return flows, empty containers, packaging, recalls, and products that need to be reprocessed are increasingly part of everyday reality in the food industry.

Sud-Fresh also handles these reverse logistics operations. We organize the return transport, registration, processing, and further handling of various types of return flows, with a focus on traceability, efficiency, and cost control.
Thanks to our experience and integrated approach, we can link these reverse logistics flows to our existing transportation and warehousing operations.

Our Reverse Logistics Services

  • Management of Empties and Transport Containers
    We organize the return and processing of various types of empties and transport containers, including: Euro pallets; H1 pallets; E2 crates; containers; roll containers, as well as custom crates and other transport packaging.
    Return flows are recorded and tracked, ensuring that our customers always have insight into the movements of their returnable containers.
  • Returns of Food Products
    We can also pick up and process food products that need to be returned.
    We ensure a fast and controlled return process, with a focus on temperature, product identification, and traceability.
  • Recalls When a product needs to be recalled, we can provide support for the entire logistical process involved in a recall.
    From retrieving and identifying products to collecting, registering, and further processing them: we ensure a controlled process and clear reporting.
  • Rework
    Products that require reprocessing can undergo rework activities within our logistics facility.
    Depending on the agreements, this may include repackaging, relabeling, sorting, or preparing products for a new shipment.
  • Registered Destruction When products can no longer be reintroduced into the supply chain, we can arrange for their destruction through registered and authorized companies. Upon completion, an official certificate of destruction can be issued, providing the customer with the necessary administrative documentation.

Return shipments no longer need to be organized as a separate logistics process: Sud-Fresh manages the entire flow of your product, from initial receipt to its final destination or return.

This is how we make complex logistics processes simpler, more transparent, and easier to manage.
