Retail and Branch

Improving Retail Customer Safety and Satisfaction

Operating in a non-stop, revolving door of customers and staff requires reliable and effective technology solutions. Whether you’re operating a retail clothing store in a large shopping mall, a single branch of a multi-location financial institution, or even a location of a well-loved fast food chain, you can connect your teams on any device – anywhere, any time – with added intelligence to help them make faster and more informed decisions.

We possess an extensive portfolio of communication and security products and services, from video surveillance systems to cellular networking solutions, to ensure the safety, security, and connectivity of your customers, staff, and business systems.

Fatalities from Workplace Accidents

The retail industry is one of the largest in the country, employing over 52 million people (25% of the US population over age 18) and bringing in trillions of dollars per year. It’s also one of the hardest hit by theft, with the country’s largest retailer reporting that they lose an estimated $3 billion per year due to merchandise theft.

Interestingly retail is also an industry riff with employee injuries. It has been reported that for retail workers who sustained an injury at work, more than half of them missed at least one day due to slips, falls, or injury from contact or equipment.

Radio Solutions

Retail workers need to be in constant communication while on the job to ensure they’re able to provide their customers with the absolute best shopping experiences possible.
