“Creating options and providing robust solutions” could be the mantra of the multichannel professionals responsible for “SO- L-D” – Supply Chain, Operations, Logistics and Delivery. As you will already know the infrastructural aspects of multichannel retail are creating new capabilities that our marketing colleagues can turn into customer promises. Immediately ‘after the buy button’ we’re involved in fulfilling those promises – delivery, service, returns management: at the customer’s, home, work, collection points and of course in store.
