A Jack of All Trades

For years, retail has been the largest vertical market for video surveillance. In fact, a regional fuel service and convenience store chain with more than 1,200 locations will spend $1 million in the fi rst year of a three-year project. A pharmacy chain’s initial order for 80 locations was 1,300 cameras, more than 16 cameras per location.

Theft is, of course, a prime motivation. American retailers lose billions of dollars per year due to theft from shoppers and employees.
