The Client
We have worked with a major retailer across Europe for several years. To this client, we have provided our manned guarding retail services, which involve our guards on the door and throughout the stores to prevent shoplifting and to keep staff and other customers safe.
Recently, the electrically controlled door in one of their department stores broke, leading to the doors being stuck open to the public on a 24/7 basis.
The client grew extremely concerned for the security of their store overnight, when staff were not present in the store to keep it safe, and when at the time, they had no overnight security outside of CCTV, which could do little to combat a threat as it took place.
Due to their concerns and existing working relationship with us, the client approached us to ask what we could do to help them.
What We Did
As we are well-acquainted with this client, we already had set guards that the store staff knew and trusted that we could offer to them on a 24/7 basis.
We kept our usual shifts on the store throughout the day, to ensure that there was constant guarding especially with the doors to the store being broken, making access easier for potential thieves and other criminals.
Alongside our usual shifts, however, we also placed a number of guards on the store overnight, directly at the door and at each department throughout the store. This ensured that no one would attempt to enter through the broken and open doors while the night passed.
The Outcome
Due to the presence of our security guards on the site at all times, the store found that there were no attempted break-ins or thefts during the two week period until they were able to get their doors fixed.
We already had a good working relationship with this client, and this incident only strengthened it. We have since acquired jobs securing several of their other stores across the globe.
