What we see in this sector.
Retail security in 2026 is harder than it's ever been. Organised retail theft has roughly tripled across BC in the last five years, and staff turnover spikes when employees feel unsafe at open and close. Our retail service is built around two priorities: visible deterrence inside the store during high-risk windows, and accountable cover for staff getting to and from their cars at open and close. For multi-tenant plazas, we can post overnight guards with documented sweeps of every storefront. Reports are formatted for insurer claims out of the box.
