Tesco has launched a new security hub in Daventry, Northamptonshire, as part of a multimillion-pound investment to address rising retail crime. The facility will operate 24/7, monitoring CCTV footage and sharing intelligence with police to tackle shoplifting and staff assaults.
Retail crime costs UK businesses an estimated £1.8 billion annually. The new hub is designed to strengthen security measures and improve collaboration with law enforcement. Tesco has not disclosed the total investment but emphasised its commitment to staff and customer safety.
