Openly and safely display your wine and spirits with bottle locks

Your customers want to be able to browse through your wine and spirits collection, handling the bottles and reading the labels.  But can you afford to allow this luxury to your customers, when theft and consumption in your store is such a problem?

You can display these items on your sales floor for all to view if you utilize liquor bottle security.  Bottle locks by Alpha Security, such as the EASy bottle caps, can prevent theft by being both a physical and visual deterrent.  When using the bottle locks, the bottle cannot be opened unless a key is used.  All shoplifters want the quick getaway and easy access to the merchandise.  They do not want to steal a bottle of wine or liquor that they have to spend hours figuring out how to open.

Businesses that sell wine and spirits also struggle with individuals consuming product within the business.  These people may need the product, but can’t afford to purchase it.  Some may just choose not to pay for it.  Either way, with bottle security you can proudly display your products and be assured that they are secure and available to be sold, not stolen.

Bottle locks are a visual deterrent, and would-be thieves are deterred by the sight of the locks.  Sales are not lost, because the bottle locks are only on the cap of the bottle.

The presentation of the product is not altered, and sales can be increased because items you once may have displayed behind your counter or in a locked case can now be out where the customers are browsing.

If wine and liquor are items that you sell in your business, consider boosting your profits and decreasing your shrink by investing in liquor bottle security. Alpha Security has what you need!

Saving the drink: Liquor bottle security

I work in a retail environment that sells beer.  I also live in a state that does not allow Sunday beer and liquor sales.  So inevitably on Monday morning we find empty beer bottles hidden out on our sales floor by sneaky folks needing that Sunday drink.

If you sell liquor and wines, this can be a common problem any day of the week – not just on Sundays.  Just as other items that are desired can be considered high theft, so can liquors and wines.  Some retailers do not realize that bottle security is available.

Bottle locks can be placed on your products to prevent them from being opened prior to purchase.  This deters the thief from opening and drinking from the bottle within your business, and also deters shoplifters from stealing the entire bottle.  Having an Alpha Security device on bottles is a visual deterrent as well as a physical deterrent when a customer tries to open up a bottle but cannot.

Liquor bottle security might not be something that you have considered, or even realized was an option for your business.  Bottle locks do exist, and can have a profound positive effect on the loss that your business is suffering from theft or on site consumption.

You may be a business that has your higher end wines and spirits behind the counter to help prevent theft.  Imagine having these items displayed out where customers are browsing your selections, instead of hidden out of view.  Customers want to be able to look at bottles and read the labels while they are making their selections.  By having bottle security the customer is able to do just that, and you do not have to worry that your premium products might get stolen if displayed.

For minimal investment you can reduce your liquor and wine losses and increase your bottom line with liquor bottle security.

Bottle Lock ; Is It The Solution To Liquor & Wine Theft?

If you own a liquor store you know all about shoplifting. But you may not know about all the prevention techniques and bottle lock items available. During good times or bad shoplifters will steal from you. Liquor stores also have another problem related to shoplifting. There are individuals that will enter the store, open a bottle of your best, drink some then put it back on the shelf. This issue is really no better than when a thief removes the merchandise from the store.

There are several things you should consider to combat these thefts. This is a multi stage solution.

First is greeting the customers when they enter the store. Why do you think that major retailers have a “greeter”? Well-established studies have shown that if impulse and some amateur shoplifters are greeted when they enter the store that they will not shoplift during that visit. This is because that in their mind they have been seen and no longer blend into the crowd. I like to stress that this should go beyond the “Hi, welcome to ___” statement. I believe that if possible they should be asked if you could assist them in finding something. This adds more interaction and clearly establishes that they have been noticed. Of course this is also very good customer service for your good customers. Remember, customers love attention shoplifters hate it.

Next we all know that you can be routinely in situations where you do not have a good employee to customer ratio. What can you do? There is other customer service and anti shoplifting techniques however, they all rely on employee actions. In this case you need items that physically secure your product. If you have a Checkpoint system at your customer doors then you have most of the problem solved. However, this may not be the best environment for just using Checkpoint labels on your bottles.

Two other Alpha High Theft Solutions products will take care of this. If you do not seem to be having issues with consumption in the store then use an Alpha Steel Grip. This bottle lock comes in several sizes and wraps around the neck of the bottle. The new Steel Grip has a redesigned coated plastic steel band that locks into a redesigned hard tag. The Steel Grip will trip the Checkpoint system at the doors.

The second is an even hotter product called EASy Guarde. This is merchandise denial product. It is a bottle lock that fits over the cap of the bottle and locks it down. There is a Checkpoint Tag built in. The bottle cannot be opened with this bottle lock on it. The EASy Guarde is clear acrylic and black.

The Steel Grip and the EASy Guarde can only be removed by store employees with the special S3 key. You can learn more about these Bottle Locks at www.LossPreventionSystems.com

Be proactive and sell more, loose less and make more margin!
