Loss Prevention Division
 

St. Moritz Security believes the best way to provide service for retailers is to partner with former industry executives who understand the problems facing specialty retail and to utilize and implement their success for security strategies. Development of a consulting group comprised of former vice presidents and directors was the first step towards meeting this challenge. St. Moritz is proud to offer a unique list of services that have been designed to be flexible, affordable, and compatible in today’s specialty retail environment. Homeland security has emerged as an unprecedented concern in our workplaces, our transportation hubs, and our communities. New threats to commerce and industry are being identified and the retail environment with its mall presence is a looming potential target. Thoughtful and realistic retail security programs will value deterrence. Forging strong vendor ties to meet these needs on a full time or part time basis is central to the deflection of those risks.

Retail Service Solutions

Retail loss prevention officers (unarmed): St. Moritz understands the need for mature, well trained personnel in retail customer settings, especially high end luxury boutiques. St. Moritz is the leader in identifying and training this very elite and unique type of service employee for whom the expectations are always set high by emanding clients who themselves are challenged by a demanding clientele.

Jewelry Escorts: This is a highly specialized division drawn from law enforcement personnel who are trained in robbery suppression for jewelers nationwide. St. Moritz is the leader in the armed escort industry. Storage resources for extended itineraries are also available.

Uniformed Security Officers (armed or unarmed): Every security officer is screened to meet individual customer needs. Security personnel are highly qualified, responsible professionals who take pride in their work. To identify reliable personnel, St. Moritz uses a rigid company hiring process that includes background screening and where applicable drug testing. St. Moritz understands that strong management depends on a superior field support staff. Our management has extensive experience in law enforcement as well as the private security industry. Our 24 hour dispatch center ensures our resources are available to our customers at any time of the day or night.

After hours coverage: Uniformed security personnel are available from border to border around the clock to meet those unexpected security needs when an emergency or other after hours access is necessary. Last minute calls for service is a specialty!

Anti-crime units (unarmed): Specialized two man teams or one man units are trained to deter, identify, and apprehend retail organized theft criminals in high crime environments. Daily activity reports are generated to track suspected offenders operating throughout a range of client locations by time, date and description.

Remote Guard Monitoring Services
When the presence of physical guards is not practical or is restricted by budgetary restraints, our remote monitoring service is your logical alternative.

Use your own networked camera systems, or lease, purchase, or rent ours. Our experts will customize a series of contact and response protocols to meet your specific environmental requirements. Operating costs are a small fraction of what it would take to schedule and train full time security personnel.

High Shrink Stores: When you need to monitor high shrink store activity to know what’s causing your shortages, our remote guard monitoring service is the cost effective way to go. We can install covert cameras, monitor them, report suspicious activity to loss prevention management, and even detail check incoming deliveries.
