Shoplift Prevention Workshop
Are you setting up a new retail establishment or remodeling an existing retail business?
We offer an affordable Store Layout Consultation for your business. We recommend that before you spend a dime on setting up or remodeling your store that you allow us to assist you with your layout design which will be consumer friendly yet shoplifter unfriendly. Generally it is much more effective and economical to shoplift proof your establishment during the early stages of setup or remodeling rather than once the final layout has been completed. The manner in which a retail store is laid out will have a profound effect on the degree of retail losses that a business will suffer and can effectively save you tens of thousands of dollars annually. We will also analyze the level of threat for your industry and make appropriate recommendations as to the best and most cost effective security systems if we feel one is necessary.

How effective is your current level of security?
Whether your business is equipped with a highly sophisticated security system or not, a "Risk Evaluation" can save you tens of thousands of dollars annually. Our team of specially trained shoplifting experts will secretly evaluate your current level of security. Only the owner or manager will be aware of when the risk analysis will occur. The general procedure is where one or more of our specialists secretly enter your premises on a predetermined date and actually become an undercover shoplifter attempting to remove as much merchandise as possible. Management is later given a full risk analysis and both security strengths and weaknesses are discussed.
Please note: The owner / manager of the retail establishment must sign a non-prosecution agreement and usually local police are informed about the undercover risk analysis.
