Just like the retail industry itself, loss prevention is undergoing a transformation unlike any other in history.

It has evolved into a mission-critical department that is intimately engaged with every other department in the organization. Indeed, progressive LP departments provide profitable value for the entire organization — value the business can’t live without. This transformation is a departure from what some LP executives may be used to when it comes to protecting the business. So, how should LP departments deliver value across the business as the retail landscape evolves? I turned to Mike Limauro, VP of asset protection at Weis Markets and Integrated Solutions For Retailers Editorial Board member, for his expert insight on the topic.
