The Problem

The Risks Facing Retail Organizations Today

Confuorto works exclusively with organizations that cannot afford to get security, compliance, or due diligence wrong. Here is what we see on the ground in this sector — and how we address it.

Organized Retail Crime

ORC groups systematically targeting retail locations cause losses that dwarf individual shoplifting incidents. Professional investigation, intelligence gathering, and law enforcement coordination are essential to an effective response.

Internal Theft & Cash Fraud

Employee theft, cashier fraud, return abuse, and inventory diversion are among the most significant contributors to retail shrink — and the most underreported. Most internal theft runs for months before detection.

Vendor & Supply Chain Fraud

Vendor billing irregularities, short shipments, and kickback arrangements between buyers and suppliers represent a category of fraud that traditional loss prevention programs are not equipped to address.

E-Commerce & Returns Fraud

Fraudulent returns, item substitution fraud, and warehouse diversion in e-commerce fulfillment create significant losses that require dedicated investigative programs to detect and mitigate.

Workplace Safety & Violence

Retail environments — particularly those in high-traffic urban locations or open late — face elevated risk of robbery, customer violence, and workplace incidents that require physical security preparedness.

Multi-Location Security Consistency

Retail chains face the challenge of maintaining consistent security standards across dozens or hundreds of locations. Confuorto builds and manages security programs that scale across the entire footprint.
