specific documentation of chargebacks may be omitted when the retailer sends the supplier a demand for reimbursement. In this example, there may be instances where insurers may exclude some chargeback costs associated with the claim if the charges are deemed by the insurer to be excessive or unsubstantiated. Additionally, the supplier may be limited in their negotiation power to dispute the charges indicated by the retailer, and a portion or all of the costs may ultimately be borne by the supplier. To avoid issues at the time an incident occurs and a claim is filed, suppliers should ensure that contractual language with retailers is reviewed in conjunction with their insurance policy to determine what, if any, gaps in coverage exist so that appropriate adjustments or risk retention financial planning can be implemented.

While indemnification language is relatively standard in most supplier agreement contracts, the language associated with the supplier chargebacks may vary significantly. Chargeback language is often broad in scope, generic, unlimited, and might not specifically outline how the costs are calculated. Many retailers contractually impose reimbursement requirements and administrative charges on the supplier that may include labor costs associated with retrieval/ handling of the product at all levels including store, warehouse,
