Retail Security
The world’s retailers are losing about $115 billion due to retail crime per year, up 5.9 percent over last year’s
total of $104.5 billion. Shoplifting is a common crime that occurs when someone steals merchandise offered
for sale from a retail store. Depending on the type of retail store, retail inventory loss ranges from .7%-2.2%
of gross sales with the average falling around 1.70%. Entire retail store chains have gone out of business
due to their inability to control retail theft losses. Today, many retail stores are putting a greater emphasis on
loss prevention and their shrink levels have decreased drastically as a direct result of focusing on loss
prevention. Electronic Article Surveillance systems and Closed Circuit Television are helpful tools in
combating loss prevention, but should not be the only source of loss prevention. The presence of a quality
security guard still serves as the best deterrent to theft prevention.
