Threats That Your Retail Establishment Faces
As is with shows and movies, retail stores are highly susceptible to theft, robberies, and burglaries. The reasons are quite obvious. You contain many goods on hand that can easily be stolen, along with cash registers that can be broken into. What else makes your retail store a great target? If you are open during the evening or night, if your staff is short, and if your goods can be easily turned into cash.
The very best targets, according to the Crime Prevention Service for Business at the School of Criminal Justice at Rutgers University, include:
- Liquor stores
- Supermarkets
- Service stations
- Convenience stores
- Jewelry stores
Let’s take a deeper look into the threats you need to protect your business from.
Theft: Shoplifting
Theft is a broad term that refers to a variety of crimes. Identity theft, theft of intellectual property, theft of services, and theft of goods (which is the threat your retail establishment faces) are a few examples. Shoplifting is a type of theft you need to safeguard your business from. People can easily steal your goods by hiding them in their jackets, pockets, or in their bags. Without security cameras or a full staff, these shoplifters will have no trouble stealing.
Burglaries
Burglary involves breaking into and entering your retail store in the attempt to commit a crime, oftentimes theft. This is usually done once the store is closed and no one is there to interfere. Installing an alarm system will prevent these burglaries from happening for it would alert you and the cops if necessary.
Robberies
What sets robberies apart from these other two is that it involves force or the threat of force when taking the goods. This is considered a violent crime and is the most threatening to your employees, customers, and business. If people associate violence with your location, they will be less likely to shop there in order to protect their safety. Your employees will also deal with stress, which will affect their productivity levels, and they might even quit if they don’t feel safe.
As you can see, all of these threats are bad for your business, but 360 Alarm has the solution. We offer top-quality retail security systems to protect your customers, your employees, and your business.
