Walgreens Security Guard Questionable Use of Force Confronting Shopper

Frank Costa, President Nexgen Protection Services – 

Stores do have a legal right to defend themselves against loss, but there are appropriate ways security details use force. This security guard gives the private security industry a bad name and contributes to a perception of abuse of power. There must be accountability for situations like this.

Fast-Frictionless Self-Checkout Shopping Increases Retail Shrink

Frank Costa, President Nexgen Protection Services – 

As predicted retail shrink is on the rise as frictionless commerce creates  challenges for retail and loss prevention. Consumers prefer and will pay more for simple, fast, and efficient shopping experiences.

Over 50 percent of consumers will switch to a merchant with less friction in the shopping experience. Retailers with self-checkout lanes and apps experience a loss rate of more than double the industry average.
