Checkpoint Labels Provide An Innovative Way To Protect All Your Products
Do you ever feel like you are struggling to stay relevant in the loss prevention community? Do you struggle to prevent shoplifting and increase profit? As a member of the Loss Prevention Community, I have done my fair share of research on the topic and the products available to mitigate my risk. I have come to realize that our economy has a direct correlation with our shoplifting rates. According to the National Association for Shoplifting Prevention, there are approximately 27 million shoplifters in our Nation and more than ten million shoplifters have been caught in the last 5 years. More than likely these statistics are based on arrest records, and considering shoplifters acknowledge that they are only caught 1 out 48 times and only prosecuted 50% of the time, that number is probably not an accurate representation of the true problem facing our Nation. As our economy suffers, it increases the need for retail theft prevention, in order to detect this type of activity. Desperate people are more likely to steal out of necessity and will take anything that is essential to improving their personal situation. This results in the theft of items you wouldn’t normally see as high risk such as: medicine, food, or personal hygiene items. That is why it is so important for those of us in loss prevention to adapt to market changes and trends so we can continue to expand our loss prevention programs, through the use of innovative products. Checkpoint Labels can provide the added security you need for a reasonable price.
If you want to enhance your retail theft prevention program Checkpoint labels are a convenient way to protect all of your products. Checkpoint Systems have created Enhanced Performance Labels that serve multiple purposes and can provide coverage for any item regardless of type or size. Checkpoint labels have EAS integration and are designed to improve your detection capability. They offer round labels for your medicine, vitamins, cosmetics and hygiene products; or small square or rectangular labels as small as a postage stamp, to cover any size item. In our retail store we use these labels on everything. We started using these on our vitamins and high end medicine after we had a large influx of theft of these products. Checkpoint Systems also produce a clear label that can be affixed directly over the product’s barcode. The clear labels can be easily affixed without obscuring the product while maintaining a level of discretion for better detection capability. We use the clear labels on our cosmetics because they are difficult to detect by the average shoplifter and provide the added security we need. The Enhanced Performance labels are printer ready so you can customize them with your specific business logo or pricing barcode. This allows for a multifaceted label that can serve all your needs in one product. We specifically like the printing capability because it saves us money to print them ourselves and allows us to customize them to meet our business needs. So do yourself a favor do some research of your own so you can better prepare yourself and your business for the escalating theft plaguing our society.
Checkpoint Systems provide various options when it comes to retail theft prevention, all of which can help reduce shrinkage, and increase profit. I know in our store, Checkpoint labels are an integral part of our loss prevention program. I have seen the results first hand. Our fluctuating economy will continue to impact our industry and how we do business, which is why our knowledge of how to mitigate our risk is equally important. Technology is ever-changing, and requires continuous education on the resources available, so we can protect our businesses and improve customer satisfaction.
