ReturnPro, the industry leader in returns management and recommerce, announced the acquisition of iF Returns, a leading enterprise returns technology platform serving more than 200 brands across Europe. The acquisition adds proven post-purchase technology that ReturnPro can bring to its existing U.S. customers while establishing a platform for international growth.
iF Returns co-founders Galo De Reyna, Marcello Valerio, and Paul Obando will continue to lead the business, working with Jelle Schoenmaker, CEO International at ReturnPro, who will oversee ReturnPro’s international growth.

The acquisition strengthens ReturnPro’s existing U.S. offering by adding iF Returns’ front-end returns and exchange technology to ReturnPro’s end-to-end returns, reverse supply chain and ReCommerce capabilities. ReturnPro plans to make these capabilities available to existing customers, including sellers across third-party marketplaces such as Walmart Marketplace, while combining them with its marketplace management expertise to help retailers and sellers retain more revenue and maximize recovery from returned products.
The acquisition also establishes a foundation for international growth under Schoenmaker’s leadership. ReturnPro will build on iF Returns’ established European presence and fashion expertise while continuing to expand the technology, operations and marketplace capabilities it provides to its existing U.S. customers. ReturnPro currently processes more than 45 million units annually and has recovered more than $5 billion for retail partners.
