Gifts In Kind International helps retailers cut out the high cost
of reverse logistics, enhance loss prevention strategies, safeguard
against brand erosion and do business in an environmentally friendly
manner. Through its Retail Donation Program, Gifts In Kind International
can be your turnkey solution to store operation, inventory control
and charitable giving.
Think globally, act locally...
Eliminate "reverse logistics" --
Your seasonal or unsold products can be picked up at retail stores
anywhere in the nation
or the world within the allotted time frame to eliminate backroom
congestion.
Add
a new tool to deal with loss prevention -- By preparing your
unsold, seasonal, returned or slightly damaged (items that are
usable or repairable) products for donation, your store employees
are tasked with tracking all products more closely, preventing
theft and other losses.
Gain
recognition and cost savings for every store -- By partnering
each store with a worthy local charity, your brand earns an even
more positive image in the neighborhood market.
Engage
your store employees -- Studies show that the involvement of
a company's employees in the local community is important to
your customers. The Retail Donation Partner program is
the perfect way to get your employees engaged in local programs.
Reap
the tax benefits -- When contributing through Gifts In Kind,
corporate and local retailers can realize a tax deduction of up
to double the cost of the merchandise donated.
Prevent
brand erosion -- Giving through Gifts In Kind ensures
that your products go to legitimate charities and do not end up
being sold on the streets or other places that will erode your
brand.
Be
environmentally friendly -- Donating products to people in
need is the perfect alternative to putting them in the landfill.
