Een kleine groep van 15 procent zogenoemde serial returners is verantwoordelijk voor 60 procent van de ecologische voetafdruk van de e-commerce. Dat blijkt uit onderzoek van de VUB. Het gaat om mensen die minstens de helft van hun online-aankopen terugsturen. "Serial returners zijn niet per se minder gemotiveerd om duurzaam te zijn, ze zijn alleen niet goed geïnformeerd over de gevolgen van hun retourgedrag.

Research conducted by the VUB indicates that a small segment of consumers, specifically 15% identified as 'serial returners,' are responsible for a disproportionate 60% of the environmental impact generated by e-commerce. These individuals are characterized by returning at least half of their online purchases. The study suggests that these 'serial returners' are not necessarily less committed to sustainability but may lack awareness regarding the ecological consequences of their frequent return behavior. This behavior significantly contributes to the environmental footprint of online shopping. The findings underscore the substantial impact of a minority of shoppers on e-commerce sustainability.

This research sheds light on the significant environmental burden of online shopping returns and identifies a key consumer group contributing to this issue.
