Loss Prevention & Profit Protection

Reducing shrinkage in retail is an on-going effort requiring commitment from all areas of the organization. It is not sufficient to train floor staff to watch out for thieves – employees or otherwise.

 

Achieving excellence in Loss Prevention requires a thorough understanding of the underlying causes. Because shrinkage is caused by process & systemic failure, opportunity and the human factor, all of these must be addressed and must be synchronized to make the improvements necessary to stop profit erosion.

RETAIL MATH

In every business there is never ending number crunching going on. The analysts have to look at the numbers from every angle to ensure on-going profitability.

A retail store, or group of stores, is no different.

There are many numbers that need to be analyzed regularly to help in managing the day to day business; to aid in decision making on just about everything.


Retail math is a major component of the background work done before most decisions involving the allocation of resources are made.
