For many retailers, loss prevention is often ignored, with priority given to promotions, merchandising, and category management. While those subjects are important, shrink loss in the supermarket was 132% greater than net profit. What does this mean? Retailers can reduce shrink by $1,000 or sell $100,000 worth of product to obtain $1,000 in profit.

Most supermarkets would agree the first option is easier to accomplish, but often resources are not given to solve loss prevention issues. This course was designed to give attention to recent and ignored issues and to provide solutions to control loss and increase the bottom line.

Below are the topics that will be covered:

• Introduction to Loss Prevention
• Associate Theft and Receiving
• Shoplifting and Organized Retail Theft
• Other Forms of Theft
• Theft Prevention

Course Duration: 4 hours
