Pushout Prevention
Push back against pushout theft with Purchek
Pushout theft is the preferred method for Organised Retail Crime (ORC) rings and opportunistic thieves, as trolleys allow shoplifters to steal far more merchandise than they could discreetly carry out of a store while blending in as regular shoppers. This makes many pushout thefts go unnoticed by retailers. Gatekeeper Systems estimates that most pushout theft incidents are never recorded, with multiple smaller thefts slipping under the radar for every major ORC pushout event. With Purchek, no confrontation is required, ensuring a seamless and positive shopping experience for your customers.
Headquartered in Foothill Ranch, CA, with offices across North America, Europe, and Australia, Gatekeeper serves a growing customer base of both regional and global blue-chip retailers.
Gatekeeper Systems' products and services provide a compelling value proposition for retailers, typically delivering a payback period of twelve months or less.
