Detectives
Detectives for wholesale and retail, department stores and shopping centres

Every year the number of thefts by customers, by a shop's own staff and through burglaries increases considerably. The resulting losses run into billions annually. Whether it is the typical shoplifter stealing for personal use or organised gangs using distraction tactics to remove goods undisturbed, preventing such offences saves retailers and their insurers enormous costs.
To keep their goods secure, more and more shops engage a store detective. Thieves and gangs scout your business thoroughly and invent tricks, for example removing electronic tags from goods. What can you do about it, and how?
Our well-prepared personnel can be deployed flexibly, whether as a doorman or as a store detective acting inconspicuously in the guise of a customer in order to catch offenders in the act. They work with discreet radio technology so they can communicate effectively with colleagues watching the monitors. Success depends on both securing evidence and establishing identities correctly. We handle both with the highest level of professionalism.
