Why Are Loss Prevention Services Important?

Each year, retail crime costs Canadian businesses close to $5 billion. Independent stores present a particularly vulnerable target, with 87.5 per cent of independent retailers reporting at least one incidence of theft per year. In an era when budgets are being squeezed, Canadian retailers can proactively safeguard their profits by ensuring they have a robust loss prevention strategy in place. Blackbird Security is an NRF member.

I am a manager for Shoppers Drug Mart. We have used many security companies, but Blackbird has been with us for a few years now and we are extremely satisfied with their services. My direct RM from Blackbird Hirdaypal Ralhan, works closely with me making sure we have the best guard on duty for my location. He has made himself available to us at all hours of the day or night and has gone above and beyond. We recently just had our yearly inventory and were very proud of our results. In saying that, having such a low shrink definitely goes hand and hand with productive guards. They have been a great tool to prevent further loss to the company.
Thank you for all your do.
