The Growing Security Crisis Facing Irish Businesses

Commercial properties across Ireland—from retailers to warehouses, offices to hospitality venues—are under constant threat from a growing wave of criminal activity, operational risk, and insurance challenges.

Common threats faced by Irish businesses:

• Theft and Shoplifting

  • Over 89% of retailers in Ireland report being affected by shoplifting.

  • Incidents are becoming more frequent and violent, with staff safety increasingly at risk.

  • Source: Retail Ireland, 2024 Retail Crime Survey

• Break-ins and Vandalism

  • Garda reports show a rise in non-residential burglaries, especially in industrial estates and retail parks.

  • Opportunistic criminals exploit low surveillance, poor lighting, and unmonitored sites, especially at night and during weekends.

• Internal Fraud & Employee Misconduct

  • According to the Irish Small and Medium Enterprises Association (ISME), over 40% of reported financial losses in SMEs originate internally.

  • Inventory shrinkage, fake sick days, and cash handling abuse go undetected without proper oversight.

• Insurance Premiums & Claim Disputes

  • Businesses without verifiable security systems face higher premiums and are more likely to have claims rejected due to “insufficient evidence.”

• GDPR & Data Compliance Risks

  • Inadequate or improperly configured CCTV can lead to non-compliance fines, eroding trust and risking litigation.

The Impact:

• Financial Losses: Over €1.2 billion is lost annually by Irish businesses due to crime and fraud combined.

• Operational Downtime: Every incident leads to clean-up, reporting, internal investigations, and potential closure.

• Staff Safety & Morale: A single incident can create long-term trauma or tension among employees.

• Reputation Damage: Customers and clients are less likely to trust businesses that have repeated or well-publicised security issues.
