Maintain brand standard

Deliver a great retail experience consistently by streamlining processes across all branches. Digitize brand standard assessments and training courses to communicate changes to operating procedures, visual merchandising, promotions, and more.

“Getting SafetyCulture platform out to 760+ shops, with so many employees was surprisingly easy. It’s not often you get that in a rollout of this magnitude. We rolled it out in a matter of weeks.“

Simon McBurney

Senior Delivery Analyst, Coles Supermarket

Minimize stock loss

Shop theft, damaged goods, and inventory stock discrepancies can result in money down the drain. Use data from completed inspections, reported issues, and sensors to spot trends, monitor inventory levels, and compare performance across stores so you can put the right measures in place.

“Now we have clear evidence that our procedures really work. When compliance is low, we see more stock loss. It’s hard to argue with that data in front of you.”

Ben Deeks

Head of Retail Profit Protection for JD Sports

Strengthen frontline vigilance with real-time reporting

Turn every employee into a frontline defense against loss. Allow staff to log security breaches, suspicious activity, or inventory discrepancies in real time, backed up with accurate media documentation. Immediately alert supervisors, enabling swift action to secure assets and prevent losses. Foster a culture of vigilance to reduce the risk of unnoticed or ignored threats.

Gain real-time visibility into store security and performance

Stay ahead of loss risks with instant access to operational data. Consolidate audit outcomes, incident reports, and task completion rates across multiple store locations. Identify trends and intervene before losses escalate. Highlight critical issues via real-time alerts to enable quick decisions on protecting assets and customer trust. Transform loss prevention from reactive damage control into proactive risk management.

Strengthen security awareness for loss prevention

Create and deliver quick, mobile-friendly modules on theft prevention, cash handling, and inventory security. Ensure employees are aligned with loss prevention policies via onboarding and refresher training courses. Track completion rates to confirm compliance and reinforce best practices when trends indicate emerging risks.
