The use of checkpoint security tags in a retail store will deter thieves from attempting theft. The goal is retail theft prevention which will reduce shoplifting traffic and reduce the need to confront shoplifters in the act.
Studies show that casual shoplifters represent 70% of the shoplifting activity. These shoplifters are opportunistic and impulsive. The presence of anti shoplifting / retail anti theft devices will stop them from attempting. 76% of shoplifters will not attempt theft when encountering retail anti theft devices such as checkpoint security tags on merchandise.
Another interesting fact is thet 60% of shoplifters return to the same store because they got away with theft there before. So installing retail anti theft devices such as checkpoint systems will deter theft, keep thieves out and or from coming back to your store and reduce theft significantly, likely by around 70% or more.
Using checkpoint security tags to stop shoplifting will boost profits, it is simple math. If you lose one $20 item and have a 2% net margin after all is said and done, you will have to sell $1,000 of merchandise to replace the loss. This is because it takes profit to buy inventory…if there is only .40 cents of net profit in a $20 item…you can see it takes a lot of sales to fix even one stolen item.
So conversely if you save / stop your losses you will put all those sales dollars directly on to the bottom line profit margin. Cut your loss by 50% with a 2% net margin and you could see a 50% or more increase in net margin. This makes the use of checkpoint security tags a no brainer.
