Boosting Profits with Bottle Security

Some shoplifters are quite brazen. I recently researched a case in which a shoplifter hid merchandise in between some cardboard boxes and casually walked out of the front of the business. This customer just appeared to be getting boxes for a move, instead of walking out with $1100 worth of merchandise, tucked away between a few boxes.

This is an extreme example, but even businesses that sell wines and liquors can be impacted by bold thefts. Bottle security is an option to help prevent theft in these businesses. Bottle locks, such as the EASy bottle cap from AlphaSecurity, attach to the cap of your high theft and high end wines and liquors. The bottle locks are removable by your employees at the time of purchase, but make the bottles nearly impossible to open by shoplifters.

A bottle lock such as the EASy bottle cap is reusable. Once you sell a bottle of wine or liquor with a bottle lock on it, the lock is removed and can be placed on another bottle to be displayed. This type of continued protection of your merchandise can greatly reduce your losses due to shoplifting. Liquor bottle security also allows you to have merchandise to sell instead of having empty shelves where your merchandise was before it was stolen. You can imagine which one is better for business.

It’s not a good idea to just wait for shoplifters to find creative ways to leave your business with your merchandise. Liquor bottle security can provide excellent security of your merchandise for a minimal investment. The product is no good if the shoplifter cannot get it open, so bottle locks encourage the thieves to go elsewhere.

“A Shoplifter Only Stole A $25 Bottle From Me. I Don’t Need Bottle Security.” Guess What…He Got Much More!

That $25 bottle actually cost you a lot more in real dollars that liquor bottle security would have prevented. You have to make up for the theft of that bottle just to break even. If your store operates on a typical 2% profit margin. That’s the margin after payroll, tax, insurance, the light bill, and any other overhead you will have to sell and additional $1,250 JUST TO BREAK EVEN ($25/.02). That’s right, the next $1250 goes for making up for the $25 bottle the shoplifter stole. The simple solution is bottle security for your sales floor.

Alpha Security has the best bottle lock products on the market. They are high quality and very easy to use. One twist or push of a button and the bottle security is in place. Liquor bottle security has really come of age. The bottle lock is low profile, light and tough. It requires a special Alpha Security key to unlock them. The bottle lock is also reusable. The cashier simply removes it and drops it into a basket under the cash wrap to be used again on another bottle.

If you lose $500 a week in shoplifting losses that is $26,000 per year in theft that translates to $1.3 million dollars a year in actual losses to you. No company can make money in that environment.

One of the first liquor bottle security devices that Alpha Security created is called EASy Bottle (Electronic Article Surveillance). EASy Bottle is a solid black bottle lock that comes in several sizes. It prevents the bottle from being opened in the store and if a shoplifter attempts to steal the bottle then the bottle lock sets off the Checkpoint System at the doors. There are now newer versions such as Crystal Guard and EASy Guarde. Those bottle locks have clear acrylic tops and are a much lower profile. They fit on the shelf better and have a much smaller over all footprint. EASy Bottle bottle locks are so popular that they are still available.

Go ahead and pop the top to a nice beverage. I dare you to try.

While you try I am going to stand back and enjoy the show because I know my liquor bottle security from Alpha security can’t be beat.  Package stores are often easy targets for theft as they usually are staffed with just enough people to man the counter.  This means that for the better part of the time there may be only 1 or 2 associates to checkout customers and try to watch the product.  The result is the customers get helped and the product gets taken.

That doesn’t have to be the case any longer.  Alpha security is a leader in bottle security.  The EASy bottle bottle lock goes over the cap of most any alcohol bottle to protect the product.  The bottle lock keeps the thief from being able to get to the contents on the inside.  Additionally, the EASy bottle bottle lock has a built in EAS tag that works with your existing EAS system to sound an alarm if someone is dumb enough to try to steal the bottle.

As mentioned, Alpha Security has more than just liquor bottle security.  Their bottle locks can be used as bottle security for high end wines and spirits as well.  Another great part about Alpha’s bottle security products is that they are reusable.  Unlike simple soft tags that have to be replaced, these bottle locks get removed at the time of purchase and then reused on the new product coming in.  Unless you do something to damage the bottle locks they will last you for a long time.  It’s much better to enjoy that cold one knowing your product is safe than needing a drink after looking at your profit and loss statement.

Bottle Locks Protect Your Top Shelf to Save Top Dollar

Here’s a quick snapshot of what life was like for me before I discovered bottle locks. Maybe you can relate. You stocked the shelves just hours or minutes before with your best brands of whiskey or vodka or some other liquor and then walk by later only to notice an empty spot on the shelf. Trouble is you don’t remember selling it.

Liquor bottle security can be a huge concern. It only takes one or two theft incidents to very quickly lose lots of profits, especially when the brands and types that are targeted for theft are your most expensive, top shelf brands. If you have EAS towers in your store, I have found that liquor bottle security like the EASy Bottle bottle lock by Alpha Security provide a great visual deterrent to would-be thieves as well as a great way for your to protect your bottom line without ruining the visual presentation of the merchandise on the shelves. The bottle lock just snaps over the bottle lid and allow the bottles to beep when they pass through security towers just like tags do on clothing and items at other stores.

EASy Bottle locks from Alpha Security are simple to install and easy for cashiers to remove at the point of sale and not only save you money, but are also a great awareness builder around theft in your store. By placing the EASy Bottle locks on your top shelf, more expensive brands, it is easy for sales people to quickly identify which items might be more likely to be stolen and more able to help you drive profits in your business.

Bottle up your savings with Alpha security.

If your store sales alcohol then you know what a nightmare shoplifting is.  It’s almost enough to drive you to … well, drink yourself.  My suggestion is turn to Alpha security and not AA to solve this particular problem.  Bottle security will always be a problem in this genre of retail.  Whether you need liquor bottle security or bottle security for expensive wines and spirits; Alpha Security has you covered.

There are several benefits to using EASy bottle bottle locks on your product.  For one, the bottle lock prevents the contents (and your profits) from being drained by capping the bottle.  Secondly, EASy bottle locks work with your existing EAS (Electronic Article Surveillance) systems to alert you of possible theft.  One thing I have learned in my many years of Loss Prevention is that if someone gets away with product once, they will be back.  While we count on bottle security to deter theft (which it will do in many cases) I like knowing that after the alarm is activated I can find out who was stealing.  That means next time I am ready and the police will be on speed dial as soon as that person comes back into the store.

Another great aspect of using the bottle lock provided by Alpha security is the ability to openly display your product.  Before you would never consider putting $200 Cristal on the shelf because you know if would go missing in a hurry.  Now you can safely put the product in the customer’s hands and hopefully in their shopping carts thanks to this type of bottle security.

Whether you are a package store needing liquor bottle security or just a grocery store looking to secure your wine, Alpha Security is a name you need to know.

Liquor stores and other businesses that sell wine and spirits are not just impacted by juveniles wanting to steal their party supplies. Adults young and old can be shoplifters and can steal from businesses that sell these items. You might be surprised to know who exactly is responsible for those losses that you have been suffering at the hands of thieves.

There are options available for bottle security. For example, the EASy bottle cap from Alpha security is a reusable cap that fits over your liquors and wines. This cap fits over the bottle’s existing cap, and is a bottle lock that prevents it from being opened. The bottle locks are removed at the time of purchase, by an employee using a key. The bottle locks are also able to be reused so you can keep your shelves stocked securely as you sell through your merchandise.

Liquor bottle security does exist, and its effects on your profits can be substantial. Shoplifters who would like a quick steal are deterred by these bottle locks, and even those that are more scheming understand that the wines and liquors would be a struggle to open without the key if they were to be successfully stolen.

Young or old, rich or poor, there are shoplifters amongst us. And these shoplifters impact on business is significant, costing honest customers and retailers millions each year.

Bottle lock, bottle lock oh bottle, bottle lock.

Is stealing alcohol in your store like taking candy from a baby?  If so, then you need to invest in bottle security devices.  A great device that I use is the EASy bottle lock by Alpha security.  These bottle locks go over the spout of the alcohol bottle you want to protect and keep shoplifters from being able to get the “product” out.

There are several benefits to using bottle security.  One of the obvious reasons is it prevents theft.  Shoplifters don’t generally want to work for their product.  A second deterrent is the EASy bottle cap works with your existing EAS system to set off an alarm in the event of attempted theft.  Again, shoplifters don’t want to be noticed so setting off alarms is low on their list of wants.

Another benefit that Alpha security has created with their bottle lock is the ability to open display product.  If anything, we in the LP profession are quick to suggesting that stores lock up all their products in order to be safe.  Well, hear from this LP professional when I say throw the display cases away and openly display your product.  Of course, I only suggest open display when using bottle locks.  The benefit to openly displaying your items with a bottle lock is twofold.  One, it just plain looks better.  Two, you will increase sales by customers being able to handle the product and serve themselves versus having to wait for an associate to unlock the product and then having to wait in line to pay for it.  You can use bottle locks to cut out the middle man and service your customers faster and more efficiently without sacrificing bottle security.

Alpha security. The new best friend for alcohol retailers.

 

If your business sales alcohol of any kind then you know how rampant theft is in your world.  There are numerous reasons for this: the economy, the price, the ease, etc.  No matter the reason you need something to keep the product safe.  Insert EASy Bottle locks from Alpha Security.

Bottle locks are small locks that fit over the mouth of most alcohol bottles.  They can be used for liquor bottle security as well as bottle security for expensive wines or other types of alcohol bottles.  The bottle lock prevents the contents from being retrieved.  Thus if you can’t get to the alcohol then stealing the bottle is kind of pointless.  Unlike some other anti theft devices these are extremely hard to bypass without the key.  A thief will generally break the bottle (losing the alcohol he/she wants) before they will successfully defeat the EASy bottle lock.  In other words, a person may go ahead and steal one, but they won’t waste their time trying to steal another.

In many cases the thief won’t even attempt to steal the first bottle.  While not ostentatious, the bottle security lock is noticeable.  It also has a sensor that works with your existing EAS system to sound your door alarm if someone tries to steal the bottle.  The threat of setting off the EAS alarm and being noticed is enough to deter most shoplifters itself.  It just adds an added deterrent effect when they know they won’t be able to get the bottle lock off even if they are successful in stealing the product.

Enjoy a Profit with Bottle Security

It’s been crazy hot where I live in the Midwest, with temperatures over 100 degrees most days.  With lakes nearby and vacation time to be used, it is no surprise that there is increased customer traffic at the local liquor stores.

Bottle security is an important consideration if yours is a business that sells wines and liquors.  You know full well how frustrating it is to find that open bottle that someone “sampled” in the corner of your store.  It is equally as frustrating to see that empty shelf in your business and realize that you do not have the sales of that item to support that vacancy.  Liquor bottle security can help reduce these losses, whether you are a large retailer or a small business.

Bottle locks, such as the EASy Bottle cap from Alpha Security, fit tightly over the caps of your high theft wine and liquors.  The bottle lock is removed at the time of the sale, by your employees, and can be reused.  Bottle security truly is easy when utilizing this type of bottle lock.  The visual deterrent is there, the customer can still browse and shop your high end liquors and wines, and you do not have to worry about what is being tasted without being purchased.

Shoplifters do not want to take the time to figure out how to remove a bottle lock from your liquors and wines.  There are enough businesses out there that do not have liquor bottle security that can be easy targets for potential shoplifters.  For minimal investment, you can send the thieves to those businesses while still attracting the honest customers that make your business profitable.
