A particular news story caught our eye this week, and made us think about the importance of retail security. The story is as follows -

“Asda has stepped up its Créme Egg security in stores, as the hunt for Cadbury’s valuable half and half eggs gets underway. The supermarket introduced a Créme Egg security guard in its Pudsey store today to help prevent any opportunistic shoppers from cracking a peak following the commencement of the egg hunt. One of the rare half milk and half white chocolate eggs worth £10,000 could be hidden in a random Asda store ready to be found by one lucky winner.

To think of Cadbury’s Crème Eggs being such an in demand item that a specific security officer is required is quite astounding – yet clearly very much needed. Should you require trained security officers in your retail facility, there are a number of reasons why Carter Security should be at the top of your list.
