What Can We Learn from Walmart?

Content: Because of their size, there are many more opportunities for shoplifting at Walmart stores. Police officers and patrol cars routinely drift near stores to be on call and save time in case of loss prevention incidents. This complements their policy of appointing qualified loss prevention personnel. Restricted access
For some who have already attempted to shoplift from Walmart, they can be given a “Notification of Restriction from Property.” This means that they can no longer enter a Walmart, for shopping or any other reason. This is an easier, simpler way to help manage shoplifting when compared to calling the police or pressing charges. This also gives Walmart less to worry about when it comes to repeat offenders. Non-Human Measures
Not all shoplifters are caught in the act by personnel. One of the latest loss prevention measures Walmart is trying out is image recognition of store items. The scanner tracks if an item from the shelf is placed in a bag before getting through the checkout counter.
