News Retail Security Dilemmas Solved with ShopShield
knows if the sector has bottomed out or not, and just how much customers will want to return to the live retail experience in enough numbers to save some struggling businesses.
As featured on the outside back cover this issue.
Many things have changed since the pandemic and lockdown turned normal life upside down, domestically and commercially, but the need to secure the increasing number of vacant retail property units remains imperative.
No one can doubt that high streets, secondary shopping locations and retail parks have been and still are in trouble; and no one really
Against this background, countless retail and hospitality properties are standing closed and forlorn until they’re either re- purposed or occupied by a new generation of entrepreneurial tenants. It’s a sad consequence that in a lot of cases, while offices continue to be relatively empty due to the working-from-home change to working practice, the small and formerly thriving businesses that need their daily trade… sandwich bars and coffee outlets, pubs, dry cleaners, hairdressers and barbers, newsagents, etc. simply cannot survive without them. In some circumstances, beleaguered tenants, at the end of their tether, have simply closed their front doors and walked away, leaving stock still on the shelf, or even tables eerily laid for customers who they will never serve again.
No matter what it says in their lease, tenants who have run out of the wherewithal to pay
their rent and their arrears, and all their usual monthly outgoings, certainly won’t be able to worry about security for their abandoned shop, bar or restaurant, so the responsibility inevitably falls back on the sometimes beleaguered landlord who has his own finance issues to deal with. And these empty units are like an open invitation to thieves, vandals, arsonists or squatters, or even flytippers if there is an inviting forecourt to dump on. Landlords can well live without all this in terms of time and further cost.
