Theft and retail loss is the most prevalent form of shrinkage experienced by retailers on average globally according to a 2017 article released from the Australian Retailers Association.  It costs Australian retailers and business billions each year, and for most retailers the numbers are on the rise averaging between 1-3% of gross profit.

To combat shrink, retailers should adopt strategies to approach losses from a wider perspective across all levels within the organisation whilst also working with their suppliers and solutions partners.

With the right retail security technologies, people and processes you can improve merchandise availability which in turn will directly impact shopper satisfaction and increase profitability, whilst also reducing the incidence of overall retail shrinkage from the management of shoplifting, employee theft and employee error.
