Tag: POS controls

Shrinkage is one of the most persistent threats to cannabis retail profitability — and most losses don’t come from smash-and-grabs, but from preventable internal breakdowns in procedure. The most reliable defense isn’t heavier locks or more cameras; it’s well-designed SOPs that hard-wire accountability into each step of operations. From cash handling to inventory transfers and close-of-day reconciliation, disciplined procedures create visibility, reduce human error, and deter misconduct. When paired with the right technology, SOPs move loss prevention from reactive damage control to proactive protection.
