Protecting your merchandise from amateur and professional thieves is an essential business strategy to guarantee your profits don’t walk out the door. Liquors, wines, and spirits are high-value and high-profit merchandise that’s worth protecting. Knowing where to start can sometimes seem like a major project, but it doesn’t have to feel that way. That’s where liquor bottle locks can be the game-changer for your business!
What are Liquor Bottle Locks?
Liquor bottle locks are bottle security tags and collars that provide complete bottle protection from thieves. The bottle locks’ design offers a visual deterrent that prevents theft while focusing on the product and it won’t detract from the shopping experience. Product Protection Solutions (PPS), provide spirits, champagne, premium liquors, and wine bottle locks that you can easily order as needed.
Benefits of Using Liquor Bottle Locks
There are many immediate and long-term ROI benefits from implementing liquor bottle locks within your business.
#1 Reusable Locks for 10+ Years
These locks can be reused repeatedly, with some retailers reporting that they’ve used the same tag for over ten years, ensuring that the upfront cost pays for itself over time.
#2 Open Display Protection
Most locks won’t interfere with existing planograms, allowing you to keep the merchandise on open display for customers to find and purchase without delay.
#3 Compatible with EAS and RFID Security
When you combine bottle locks with security surveillance, it increases the level of product protection from amateur and Organized Retail Crime (ORC) theft.
#4 Quickly Detaches at the Point of Sale
Employees can easily remove the lock at purchase, and it won’t slow down the checkout process.
#5 In-Store Tagging Option
These locks can be placed on merchandise at your location, giving you the freedom to determine which items need extra protection now. For example, high shrink products might change depending on if people are shopping for the holidays or shopping throughout slower times of the year.
