Reverse logistics is the process of planning, implementing, and controlling the efficient and cost-effective flow of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, finished goods, and related information from the point of consumption to the of point of origin for the purposes of value recovery or correct disposal. It is the process of returning goods from consumers to suppliers. It also includes sending backup streams of new or used products for repair, remanufacturing, reuse, recycling and refurbishment activities. Hang Ten does not do reverse logistics. Probably, because the process is tedious and very expensive in terms of transportation and it also costs more to collect the goods and Hang Ten's goal is to have affordable prices suitable for price-conscious consumers. Featuring a cost-efficient production and supply chain system, Hang Ten is able to be one of the most competitive casual apparel retailers in the industry and offers great value for money to its consumers. It offers relatively affordable prices compared to its rivals, Giordano, Bossini and other clothing brands semper 21 and H&M. Therefore, it keeps production and manufacturing costs low to pass the savings on to consumers. With this, consumers can continue to enjoy the affordable prices offered by Hang Ten. Engaging in reverse logistics would increase costs and would not allow Hang Ten to set an affordable price for its clothes. We propose that Hang Ten engage in reverse logistics. This mainly involves recycling and remanufacturing processes. Textile recycling is the method of reusing or reprocessing used clothing, fibrous material and clothing waste from the manufacturing process. Apart from this cotton, which is a vital component in clothing, it can… half of paper… men's perception of the brand. This in turn will reap profits. It is important for Hang Ten to practice outsourcing because of the benefits associated with it. Hang ten can also engage in outsourcing by sourcing cheap labor from countries like India and China, basing its operations in countries that are easy to set up and not very expensive. Apart from that, it can also outsource the color dyeing process and customer service to third parties who are experienced in doing so. http://www.outsource2india.com/why_outsource/articles/global-outsourcing.asphttp://kalypso.com /viewpoints/blog/apparel-manufacturing-outsourcing-product-innovation-opportunities/http://www.fibre2fashion. com/industry-article/29/2863/global-apparel-sourcing-whats-the-preference-cost-quality -o-lead-time1.asphttp://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/632895/hang_ten_group_holdings_ltd
