Independents feel it hardest
For a small UK shop, a single bad week of theft can wipe out the month’s margin — and most independents can’t afford a dedicated security team. The good news: you don’t need one.
If you need the national numbers to put your own losses in context — or to quote in a funding or insurance conversation — our UK retail theft statistics page keeps them in one place with the primary BRC and ONS sources cited.
Start small, protect smart
- Use the cameras you already have.
- Add AI detection on top — no rip-and-replace.
- Get a phone alert when risky behaviour appears.
- Review the week’s hotspots in a simple dashboard.
