He retail it has all sorts of resources to which it must act.
Oxxo has established itself as a benchmark in the convenience store market.
When assault to one oxxo cashierno one imagined that the event would end unexpectedly when we saw that one of the aggressors realized that she was pregnantfor which he had a gesture with the employee and made the action go viral.
Within studies As the “National Retail Security Survey 2022” It is shown that there are three main concerns in retail on safety matter. The first, the violence that some consumers come to exercise; second, the robbery and third, the actions of organized crime.
Assault with unexpected gesture
An unexpected gesture to the Oxxo cashier who was a pregnant victim of assault, reminds us of the challenge that employees at points of sale have in situations such as the insecurity that occurs in these commercial places.
Everything was documented in a video recorded in a store located in the state of Tamaulipas, where a couple is seen entering with a long gun pointed at the cashier to ask her to open the box and remove the cash that was in the box, when suddenly the woman who accompanied the armed man extends her hand to caress his belly and say “congratulations”.
After the dissemination of the video on Facebook, the comments arose in various ways, including those of Mary Gallegos, who wrote: “Poor man, I hope he doesn’t have any complications after the tremendous scare,” while Morenito Mendoza assured that it was a nice assailant, so after the gesture that he was even glad to be a victim of these people.
This case highlights the security challenge that exists in retail, at all levels of this industry and with increasingly challenging expectations in the market in terms of security to protect employees and consumers.
The assault on an Oxxo cashier warns us of the security challenge that exists in retail and the excesses reached by other brands within this segment, especially with cases like the one that Market2.0 reported in March 2022 when a consumer shared on his Facebook account Twitterthat the company began to place sensors on the cheeses that are sold in the store, as a way of avoiding the protection of these foods from ant theft.
Employees consulted by Merca2.0 in the butcher area explain that the way food thieves operate at points of sale it is removing the cuts of meat from the trays to hide them among their belongings.
To prevent the theft of its products, not only did Bodega Aurrerá implement sensors on food in Mexico, but also in the United States it was decided to protect the cuts of meat with meshes and alarms, to avoid the theft of these foods.
These practices account for the challenge that the retail to carry out security strategies through which main practices in the market can be identified before the consumer, such as starting to place sensors on food, among other examples, which undoubtedly give rise to understanding the market.
