Effectively managing inventory requires an understanding of various types of shoplifters. This guide explores five key categories: juveniles, who may steal for thrill or peer pressure; impulse shoplifters, acting on a sudden urge; alcoholics, vagrants, and drug addicts, often driven by addiction; kleptomaniacs, who steal compulsively without need; and professionals, who meticulously plan thefts. By recognizing these patterns, retailers can implement targeted prevention strategies to safeguard their inventory and reduce losses.
