This is one ranking where I wish Wisconsin had not placed in the top five. Organized retail crime presents a significant and growing threat across our state. These criminal operations endanger the safety of employees and customers, undermine the financial stability of both small businesses and major retailers, and often serve as a funding source for broader organized criminal activity.


Raising awareness is critical. Thank you to Loss Prevention Magazine for highlighting this important issue and for supporting efforts to combat organized retail crime in Wisconsin and nationwide.
