Our thieves knew that we had limited retail theft prevention for expensive saw blades. The end result was that we lost them both frequently and in large quantities. Shoplifters would clear an entire peg worth of blades in just one swift motion. That could be anywhere from a few hundred to a thousand dollar loss all at once.
These particular saw blades came to us in the most minimal packaged plastic clamshells. There was a checkpoint systems soft tag on the outside of the packaging, mostly because there just wasn’t any other place to put it.
It wasn’t until recently that there was better retail theft prevention that could help us mitigate these particularly expensive inventory losses. The Alpha Security Alpha Spider Web’s unique multi-strand steel cable mesh bag presents an excellent visual deterrent. The Alpha Spider Web still allows for open merchandising while providing anti shoplifting.
Alpha Spider Webs provide breakthrough security for even the most irregular-shaped packages, like our saw blades. Now we can slide the blades into one of these mesh bags. We can still merchandise them on a pegboard like we have been. The difference is the Spider Webs will stop shoplifting better than the soft labels.
