THE CASE OF THE RUNAWAY SNEAKERS -- help us solve the case!
The story:
A large sporting goods store has a full-service shoe department. Every day, the store experiences heavy losses of athletic shoes from the stockroom. Some of the thefts are discovered when an employee brings down a particular shoe for a customer and finds only an empty box. Other times, the inventory just comes up short. Customers do not have access to the stockroom, but two dozen employees do.
The solution?
If you have a solution or advice about how the store can stop these sneaker thefts or ideas about how they can avoid repeat problems in the stockroom, please let us know by posting your ideas as replies to this thread, or by emailing [email protected]. We'll publish the best solutions in an upcoming SecurityInfoWatch.com Retail Security column -- and you can remain anonymous if you wish.
