Revolutionizing Retail Security with Purchek® Pushout Theft Prevention Solution

In the May issue of ‘Security & Loss Prevention’ published by Retail Today, Craig Greenberg, our Chief Commercial Officer, highlights Gatekeeper Systems’ Purchek® Pushout Theft Prevention Solution, which addresses the growing challenge of pushout theft in retail environments. This advanced technology utilizes sensors and cart behavior analytics to detect and prevent theft non-confrontationally. When a shopping cart with unpaid merchandise attempts to exit the store, Purchek® locks the cart and triggers an alarm, capturing video footage and typically causing the thief to abandon the cart. This method enhances security without disrupting the shopping experience or requiring direct employee intervention, reducing the risk of confrontations and violence. Widely deployed across over 50 countries, Purchek® has proven highly effective, with case studies showing significant reductions in theft. The solution also prioritizes fairness by focusing on cart movement rather than profiling individuals and seamlessly integrates into existing retail operations. By protecting both merchandise and employee safety, Gatekeeper Systems is pioneering a new era in retail security.
