Checkout this fantastic article by Marshall Kay in Forbes discussing the under-utilization of RFID technology in the retail industry for asset protection use cases. It's fascinating to see how RFID has the potential to revolutionize key aspects like inventory management, supply chain visibility, and theft prevention—areas of paramount importance for retailers. Both Marshall Kay and Read Hayes, PhD ,of the Loss Prevention Research Council (LPRC) emphasize the untapped potential of RFID in Asset Protection, Theft prevention, and forensic data collection. Personally, having witnessed the evolution of RFID from within retail. I agree with Marshall & Read's assessment of RFID's under-utilization in relationship to Asset Protection utilization. It's been an incredible journey, and I consider myself fortunate to have been part of the RFID revolution during my time in the retail sector. #RFID #RetailInnovation #DigitalTransformation
In my latest #Forbes article you'll find some great quotes from noted criminologist Read Hayes, PhD, who is regarded by many as the world's leading expert on retail theft. He says: 1) "RFID is vastly underused (by retailers) as a Loss Prevention solution" 2) "RFID gives retailers capabilities they have wanted for decades" He is excited that #RFID smart labels exist for virtually every consumer good you can imagine, including items that sell for under $1 --- helping retailers Solve, Prove & Fight crime in sophisticated ways. My article also touches on the great work being done by Macy's Joe Coll and his Asset Protection team, and the Loss Prevention Research Council (LPRC). #RFIQ #RetailTheft #Shoplifting #RetailCrime #LossDetection #LossPrevention #ORC #InternalTheft #ModernRetail #EfficientRetail Brian Sozzi Suzanne Kapner Courtney Reagan Helen Reid Omni Talk Retail Steve Dennis RETHINK Retail #TRI2023 Robin Lewis Shelley E.

The Modern Shopper Strategist: Award-winning retail & shopper expert, author, and keynote speaker. RETHINK Retail Top Expert (2023 & 2024). Decoding retail, tracking trends, and crafting sustainable strategies.
There are so many issues that retailers are grappling with at the moment - supply chain issues, sustainability concerns, staff shortages. The list goes on. And somewhere when often chatting with retailers about their key concerns, the topic always comes up about the challenges of shrinkage and theft and managing security in a busy retail world. I have to admit that while I often hear about the problems, I wasn't informed enough about many of the solutions and solutions providers to help retailers deal with these issues. So, it was a pleasure when I met Sarah Lenihan, one of the Verkada team in London at the recent Retail Technology Show, who later took time to talk me through the emerging trends around retail security and how technology is empowering retailers to take back control in this space. With the emergence of technologies and AI enabled tools, supporting active loss prevention strategies and enabling action in real time, this is a fascinating area in which AI is really evolving retail security, tackling shrinkage and enabling the retailer to respond more effectively to the industry issue. What's interesting is that chances are you've already visited a retail store using Verkada's security technology, you just didn't know or notice it. Check out Verkada's ebook on retail security and loss prevention measures, free to download in the retail section on their website. https://lnkd.in/eRJpCne9 And if you want to learn more, this is one of the many topics we will touch on when we host a London Retail Safari on 12th June, which looks at the needs of both the modern shopper and retailer.
