How to Prevent Organized Retail Crime

According to the National Retail Federation, Organized Retail Crime (ORC) costs the retail industry approximately $30 billion dollars each year. So, how can you prevent professional shoplifters from targeting your store?

Here are some quick tips to see how you can prevent theft in your store:

1. Use face identification technology - This technology allows you to assemble a ‘watch list’, alerting security as soon as someone from this list sets foot inside your store.

2. Avoid store credit returns - Some shoplifters choose to steal from stores with liberal returns policies.

3. Beware of gift card fraud - Thieves are known to purchase low-value gift cards which they then electronically reprogram to contain a higher value.
