Foremost on the forecourt

Security is an all-important consideration for forecourt retailers. Shoplifting is a keen threat according to Co Wicklow company, ABL Communications and Security, which states a company with a weekly turnover of €10,000 can incur a 2.78% loss through fraud, meaning it can lose out on €14,456 annually. What’s more, drive-offs and over-fills are two offences that frequently occur at many petrol stations.

Fortunately, it has been proven that technological advances can help to cut down the frequency of such crimes. According to Paul Farren of Tokheim, the Tokheim Fuel POS system can be interfaced with CCTV to deliver comprehensive security. He explains that when a customer lifts a nozzle out of the pump, their photograph “is superimposed on the cashier’s screen, so they can check to make sure the right person is paying for the right fuel.” Registration plates are also captured.more >
