Hurricane Ready!

Keeping our customers supplied with EAS Retail Security Tags is our top priority. Despite the threat of hurricanes in Florida, we are capable of sustaining a fierce storm here in Delray Beach. Our warehouse and offices are built to the newest building codes for hurricanes, plus our communication system and power will be operable even if power to the area is out. The end result is that we will be here for you. In addition, our Long Island warehouse is capable of standing in for us at any time and vice versa! We’re ready!!

Checkpoint in Trouble?

A colleague of mine sent me a Press Release (see the enclosed link) from one of its largest investors. As an industry player, it’s difficult to read the concern and the results stated in this open letter to the market. All I can say is that we are fortunate at BSI to have a positive Board of Directors – great investors and management, and are producing growth and positive results. For those of you following this blog – we are doing well and recommend that you look us over for your RF and AM EAS Business opportunities.

I hope (and assume) that CKPT will be OK. It’s good for the industry!

Retail Theft Statistics

According to a recently distributed report from Jack L. Hayes International – a leading inventory shrinkage consulting firm, shoplifters and dishonest employees accounted for over $7 Billion in 23 top retailers surveyed for the year 2010. And, there were over 1 million apprehensions made by those same 23 top retailers.

Yes, both shoplifters and dishonest employees cost us ALL in the end, which is why Retail Loss Prevention is such a necessary thing for us all to continue to reduce.
