What anti shoplifting solution keeps shoplifters out?
Nothing will actually keep shoplifters out of any store, because no can say what a shoplifter looks like. Could be male or female, any race, skin color or religion, old or young. Anyone who has been in retail for any length of time knows a shoplifter story that begins, “You won’t believe who we caught shoplifting”, then goes on to describe a preacher, school principal, politician or who knows what. The point is, anyone can be a potential shoplifter.
So the goal is to let everyone in the store, but don’t let them shoplift. There are various degrees of deterrence that can used to discourage shoplifting activity, some more successful than others.
One of the most effective and practical anti shoplifting decisions a retailer can make is the installation of one of the retail anti theft devices developed by Checkpoint Systems.
The way it works is not magic, but it can seem like it is.
Sensors – actually pedestal antennas – are placed at the store’s entrance/exit where every customer passes through to enter or leave the store. All the merchandise – at least the merchandise that needs protection from theft – has a Checkpoint tag or Checkpoint label attached. The labels are deactivated and the tags are removed when the item is sold. If the tag or label is not removed, when the label passes through the antennas’ field, the antenna picks up the radio frequency emitted by the tags and sound a local alarm as it flashed a red light. Not disruptive, but definitely an attention getter.
The Checkpoint Systems device is extremely reliable (it never takes a day off and rarely calls in sick). Although salespeople should always remain alert for shoplifters, Checkpoint Security Systems can take some of the pressure off and let sales people do what they do – sell merchandise.
Get an anti shoplifting attitude and cut your retail theft losses with a retail anti theft device from Checkpoint Systems.
