Guards patrol store entrances, registers/checkout areas and around merchandise most targeted by thieves (jewelry, cosmetics, electronics and clothing).
SIMI VALLEY, Calif. - Californer -- Retailers are implementing new security measures to combat rising theft that include retaining private security guards, says Access Patrol Services (https://accesspatrolservice.com/) (APS), a security guard company serving California and Arizona.
While retailers including Target, Walmart, Burger King, In-N-Out, Nordstrom and Macy's have announced store closures (https://www.newsweek.com/full-list-california-s...) due to increases in crime, others are locking up more of their merchandise and placing body cameras on employees.
"Requiring employees to help in the fight against shoplifting is not the answer. Instead, strategically adding security guards not only deters thieves from stealing, but it also eliminates the need to put store employees in harm's way," says Fahim Abid, security director for APS. "Security guards are specifically trained to address store theft—from individual shoplifters to retail crime rings. Store employees aren't."

Guards patrol store entrances, registers/checkout areas and around merchandise most targeted by thieves (jewelry, cosmetics, electronics and clothing). They monitor merchandise deliveries and storage areas.
According to the National Retail Federation, U.S. retailers are on track to lose $132 billion from theft in 2024 (https://capitaloneshopping.com/research/shoplifting-statistics/). "Security guards should be part of most retailers' budget, especially retailers that have been repeatedly targeted," says Abid.
Access Patrol Services provides both armed and unarmed security guards. The guards patrol malls, strip malls and small and big box stores and are available during store hours or around the clock.
