Why Deduction Recovery Should Be Your #1 Resolution

Writer's picture: Jon AllenJon Allen

New Year Resolution

Here’s a sobering stat: Retail suppliers lose an average of 5-10% of their revenue annually due to unresolved deductions and chargebacks. For many businesses, that’s the difference between hitting financial goals and falling short. If you’re doing $1 million in retail sales, that could mean $50,000 to $100,000 slipping through your fingers.


What would an extra $50,000 in recovered revenue do for your business this year? Fund your next product launch? Invest in better marketing? Build inventory for a major retailer? The opportunity cost is enormous.


The Hidden Cause of Deduction Drain

Retailers often deduct for things like missed shipment windows, labeling errors, or shortages—even when they’re not your fault. The problem? Many suppliers don’t have the capacity or expertise to dig into every deduction and challenge the inaccuracies. That’s where it adds up fast.


Most suppliers assume a certain level of deductions is just “the cost of doing business.” But—it doesn’t have to be like that.
