Florida retailers are losing billions annually to theft. From tourist-heavy hubs to neighborhood shops, thieves are exploiting weaknesses. Aviana Controls helps Florida businesses protect profits with specialized loss prevention and investigative strategies built for the Sunshine State.

Back-to-school season brings a surge in traffic, stress, and shrink. While most retail teams focus on staffing and merchandising, seasoned thieves—and desperate parents—see it as an opportunity.

Historically, building a solid asset protection (AP) program meant hiring a full-time leader to design strategies, oversee execution, and support stores. But for many retailers—especially small and mid-sized operations—that model isn’t realistic anymore. Not because the need has disappeared, but because the resources haven’t kept pace with the risk.

Clients who choose Aviana Controls over the leading competitor typically save $3,000–$7,500 per engagement—thanks to our flat-rate pricing, bundled travel, and no hourly billing. That’s money you keep in your business instead of spending on inflated consulting fees.

You’ve probably heard the terms asset protection and loss prevention used interchangeably. That’s understandable—they overlap a lot. But lumping them together overlooks some key differences that can shape how your retail business manages risk.

If you're a retailer struggling with unexplained loss, inventory shrink, or operational breakdowns — and you're not in a position to hire full-time loss prevention staff or pay inflated fees to corporate consultants — you're not alone.

By staying proactive and keeping staff engaged, retailers can reduce their exposure to ORC this summer while maintaining a safe and profitable environment.

Seasonal staff are essential to summer retail success—but also pose unique loss prevention challenges. Ongoing support, clear communication, and consistent reinforcement are key to maintaining strong defenses during the warmest months of the year.

Aviana Controls is excited to launch Aviana Advantage—our new home for the latest company news, industry updates, and informational press releases.
