Do you want to safeguard your business from shoplifters? Do you want to protect your business from refunding fraudulent receipts? Do you find it difficult to solve your management and administrative problems? The holiday season heralds the approach of crowds, shortage of staff and shoplifters, who are the bane of every store owner. Every store has to use all their resources to be vigilant for shoplifting activities. Though being extra careful has paid off in most cases, the loss of merchandise is still irreparable. Invariably, the shoplifter sells the stolen merchandise into a black market operation for a lesser amount than the original value or keeps it for personal use. Southland Associates, in San Carlos, in the heart of Silicon Valley, provide a competitive edge for businesses with customized, low cost, complete end-to-end business management solutions.

Organized crime rings have grown with lucrative ways to increase profits on stolen merchandise. When an item or items from a store is stolen, the shoplifter brings the merchandise back to the store in order to get the cash refund. The thief pretends to have lost the sales receipt which is often overlooked by the merchants as they want to be of service to the customer and they eventually pay the so-called customer without the sales receipt. As the Rob & Return syndrome hits the stores, merchants have to pay the full sales value of the merchandise. Though some of the merchants have insisted on the receipt, the thieves, with the aid of technology are able to replicate the original bills.

With eCommerce, your retail operation is no longer limited to a geographic area. One Southland customer reports that 25% of their sales now originates from customers located more than 1,000 miles away. Two years ago, the number was zero.

This has made the business more cost competitive & facilitated a further increase in sales. Without the management tools provided by Southland Associates, much of this growth would have been impossible.
