What You Lose When You Aren’t Losing- Prevent Shoplifting

An open merchandising solution entails a customer’s ability to pick the product up at their leisure. It allows them to read labels, feel fabrics or materials, and inspect an item up close for quality. 

When the customer feels like they have gathered enough information to make a purchasing decision, they buy the item. Some customers are turned off by the prospect of needing an employee to assist them.

Either they do not want to endure a barrage of questions about what they are looking for, or the customer simply does not have the time to track down an employee to get the item for them. Open merchandising allows the customer to take control of their purchase.

Each time a retailer tries to lock up their high theft merchandise behind a case, or some other form of employee control, sales go down. It has been proven time and time again from every product assortment and specialty niche that has undergone a locking solution. As a result, many retailers often miss out on the fact that while they are no longer missing inventory due to theft, they are missing out on valuable sales.

In many cases, the lost sales out number the losses from theft of these items.
