How much revenue did your organization win, or lose, based on delivery performance during Peak?
The holiday peak exposes the fragile link between delivery performance and customer loyalty. Retail and logistics leaders consistently face the same post-Peak challenge: first-time buyers won during the holidays often don’t return if their delivery experience misses expectations. Carriers that struggled under peak volume created downstream impacts, spikes in customer service demand, avoidable refunds, operational strain, and measurable drops in repeat-purchase behavior. With rising shipping costs, shifting carrier availability, and consumers who expect fast, transparent delivery every time, brands are navigating a widening gap between customer expectations and current carrier performance.
In this session, leaders will examine how to turn peak-season volatility into long-term advantage. We’ll unpack where carriers excelled and where they fell short and translate those lessons into 2026 strategies that strengthen retention and loyalty. Together we’ll explore how retailers are reshaping their carrier mix, building more flexible networks, reducing cost-to-serve without hurting conversion, and designing true carrier partnerships based on transparency, reliability, and shared accountability.
Join Veho and a select group of your peers in this virtual roundtable where the focus is on actionable restructuring, not theoretical fixes, to help teams drive sustainable experience and margin improvements heading into next peak.
