UK Garden Centres Are Losing Thousands to Theft – Here’s How to Stop It.
Shoplifters are adapting - hiding goods in cafés, bypassing outdated security tags, and walking out with high-value items unchecked. Traditional security systems aren’t enough anymore.
✅ Fairweathers Garden Centre took action with Chirp Protect.
Here’s what happened:
✔️ Intercepted concealed goods before they left the store.
✔️ Deterred theft with real-time tamper alerts.
✔️ Protected a wider range of products with flexible security tags.
Conventional security systems often leave gaps that shoplifters exploit.
Patrick Fairweather of Fairweathers Garden Nursery and Garden Centre shares how Chirp Protect is closing those gaps:
