Retail Loss Prevention in the Distribution Chain: How to identify and prevent loss in retail distribution networks

Retail losses in the distribution chain occur mainly because of human error or a failure to control procedures within an organisation. Retail Loss Prevention in the Distribution Chain discusses many of the causes of these losses and gives practical advice in how to prevent them. Careless picking leads to wrong loads which lead to wrong deliveries, unavailability of stock items in the retail outlet and a loss of sales. All of these and many more issues are discussed in this book. The book is equally suitable for loss prevention teams, warehouse and distribution centre managers and retail managers. No knowledge of the subject is assumed or required. The subjects covered include: how to ensure stock availability; distribution channels; profit protection in warehouses; distribution site security; protecting goods in and goods out; administration losses and much more. This book will save time, physical assets, money and reputations in any organisation involved in moving retail goods. This and other books in the series are written for readers with little or no knowledge of retail loss prevention but the content makes them suitable for all managers and loss prevention specialists. Written in easy to understand language, this book will help any retail manager or loss prevention specialist who needs to prevent and deal with loss in their retail outlet(s). Retail loss prevention risk assessments will become simple using this book. Carry it with you on your e-reader and easily move to different sections of the book as you conduct your risk assessments. Use the book to make your own checklists and save hours of time having to think about what you should be looking for.
