SOUTHBOROUGH, Mass. and BARCELONA, Spain, July 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Newmine, a leader in returns reduction and returns intelligence technology, announced today that Viscata has selected Newmine's Chief Returns Officer to reduce returns. Viscata joins Newmine's growing client base of retailers and brands spanning multi-billion-dollar public companies, to smaller companies across both hard and soft goods categories.
