Shopping Trolley Locks and Chains: Advantages for Melbourne Supermarket Owners

July 31, 2020

Most supermarket owners in Melbourne are finding new ways to prevent their shopping trolleys from being stolen and taken out of their stores. They also want to avoid council-imposed fines due to the huge number of trolleys that are just abandoned outside of their establishments. Security and store personnel may be tasked to monitor the situation and condition of the trolleys, but they are also loaded with responsibilities that do not necessarily revolve around trolley monitoring.

Fortunately, one great solution supermarket owners can consider and subsequently practice is the installation of shopping trolley locks and chains. These locks and chains are intended to protect trolleys from people who have either bad intentions or are just lazy to bring back the trolleys inside the supermarket. If you are one of the supermarket owners who always deal with the mentioned problems, then here are some advantages of shopping trolley locks and chains that you should know.

Deter Theft and Shoplifting

The presence of shopping trolley locks and chains can easily deter theft and instance of shoplifting. You see, some people that enter your store will disguise themselves as shoppers, but when no one is looking around, they will try to push out the shopping trolley and steal whatever products they have obtained. Not only you have lost a huge amount of goods and revenues, but it might also cost you a huge fine from having an abandoned shopping trolley outside your store. The worst thing that may happen is when these people steal the whole shopping trolley, which then amplifies the expenses you must recover.

Shopping trolley locks and chains will keep the shopping trolleys within the vicinity of your store. And if ever someone attempts to steal from your store, store personnel that is stationed on the entrances of the store will be alerted and notified immediately.

Prevent Payment of Fines

The sight of numerous abandoned and scattered shopping trolleys on the parking lot can be unpleasant. And as a result, some shoppers may be reluctant to go back to the store since the situation outside connotes that the management does not really care about their shopping trolleys. To make matters worse, authorities may slap a huge amount of fine to supermarket owners just because of all the abandoned shopping trolleys outside their respective stores. Without controlling the shopping trolleys, you would truly lose customers and incur unnecessary expenses.

The installation of shopping trolley locks and chains help you set limitations of shopping trolleys. The maximum distance that shopping trolleys can be navigated to can be set by you, preventing them from reaching public areas.

If you need to have your own shopping trolley locks and chains, then we at SOS Retail Sales can give them to you. Our trolley locks can fit a wide assortment of trolley styles and are simple to use. They are also durable and rust-resistant. We also offer chains, master keys, and signage to enhance shopping trolley security.
