A Comprehensive Overview of Retail Security Services

If you own a retail business, you know how important it is to keep your store and products secure - after all, most stores in Canada regularly deal with retail loss and inventory shrinkage. Fortunately, there are plenty of options when it comes to professional retail security services that will help keep your store safe - and your inventory protected.

As Canada’s leading security company, the team at Blackbird is skilled and experienced in all areas of retail security services, including loss prevention, tactical security, uniform security guards and elite suit and tie security services. In this blog post, we will take a closer look at what each approach entails, so that you can decide what might be right for your business, employees, or event.

Loss Prevention Services

Loss prevention is one of Blackbird Security’s most popular services for businesses that must protect their merchandise from theft. Our retail security guards typically patrol the premises, monitor surveillance and customers, and can assist with physical apprehension if necessary. We also offer plain-clothes loss prevention professionals that will act like store detectives, blend in with the shoppers, and prevent theft by making arrests or product recoveries.

Additionally, Blackbird’s loss prevention guards often have access to advanced CCTV technology - such as cameras and alarms - that can help identify potential thieves or shoplifters before any merchandise is taken from the store.

Tactical Services

As industry-leading providers of retail security, the Blackbird team offers an extra layer of protection for businesses that require a higher level of safety due to locations, customer demographics, or busy times of the year. This extra layer may also be needed during promotional events, product conferences, or exhibitions. Our tactical services include frontline response, crowd control, and the prevention of unauthorised entry.

Additionally, our experience allows us to actively and efficiently diffuse incidents, monitor and control access, offer risk assessment services, and manage traffic and parking enforcement.

Elite Suit & Tie Guard Services

Blackbird Security’s elite suit and tie guard services offer the highest level of protection available for retail businesses. All of our uniformed guards are highly trained, but our elite division specialises in risk assessment and loss prevention, on top of outstanding customer service and upscale image.

Additionally, our elite security team offers prestige services for retail conferences and events; this means that Blackbird Security will act as frontline ambassadors and reflect the high standards of a business or company by delivering personalised support, complete with a professional black suit and tie ensemble.
