Prepare your stock with security tags ahead of the January sales
As consumers, we cannot wait for the January sales, where we can stock up on our favourite products for a fraction of the RRP price and bag ourselves some bargains for the rest of the year. However, this time of year can often be a nightmare to retail bosses who are aware that sales often mean an increase in the risk of theft. Whilst sales are likely to soar, this comes at the price of losing stock to thieves and shoplifters.
To prepare you for your January sales, JKI Distribution tells you everything you need to know about how security tags can support your stores during peak sale seasons and which security tags could work well for your products. As a distributor and installer of security products, we work closely with retail stores across the country to ensure your stock and profit margin are protected all year round.

Detection systems work in conjunction with your security tags
Alongside ensuring you have the latest in security tag technology, it's important to consider visible deterrents that work in conjunction with your tags, as well as detachers that will support removing these security tags safely once your product has been purchased.
EAS Security tag detection systems
We have all walked out of a shop (after having paid for our items, of course) only to find that the tall machines by the doors start making a loud (and slightly embarrassing) alarm sound. Shop employees or security come over and ask to check our bags and receipts, only to find that a tag has been accidentally left on one of our products. The machine that alerts staff to potential theft is called an EAS detection system and aims to work alongside your security tags to ensure that thieves are spotted when they try to leave a store without paying for something. With a huge range of EAS Detection systems available for your store, The JKI Distribution team are experts in advising the correct equipment for you and will install your detection system before ensuring it's working correctly.
Deactivators and Detachers
Once an item has been purchased by a customer, it's important to remove the security tag safely and effectively, both to ensure the detection system doesn't go off and also to protect the product from any damage that will result in a return and, quite possibly, an unhappy customer. Deactivators and detachers are often installed at till points throughout a retail store, so an employee is able to remove security tags during or after checkout. Your choice of system will very much depend on the security tags you choose to use and your door arranngement, so your JKI Distribution team member will advise you of the system you need once you have chosen the appropriate security tags for your store.
