Summary

Shrink management is the last un-covered profit center.

Without a sound LP program, your losses will grow as your business grows.

LP does not start and end at your retail floor. It touches every part of your operation.

When every part of the business thinks shrink, it ensures that LP is embedded in the organizational structure and culture.
