There's a suggestion facial recognition isn't the sole factor behind a drop in supermarket retail crime. Foodstuffs North Island —which owns Pak'n'Save and New World— says early results from its six month trial show it prevented about 130 serious incidents. It also reported around 4,700 incidents across all stores in April to June – an 8% drop quarterly. First Retail Group managing director Chris Wilkinson told Ryan Bridge there are other elements too. He says there's also a new Police Minister, a new letter of expectation with Police, and more determination around the sector, which have had a ripple effect.

A move by mega online retailers to charge for returns could push shoppers back in local bricks and mortar stores. Clothing giant ASOS, previously allowed people to return unwanted purchases for a full refund - not anymore. They'll be stung about eight New Zealand dollars unless they keep a minimum purchase value. Amazon is also charging a return fee and UK fashion retailer BooHoo is now charging for freight. Chris Wilkinson the Managing Director of retail strategy experts, First Retail Group spoke to Lisa Owen.
Experts believe a changing retail market and the evolution of influencers have forced online companies to make some changes. British e-retailer ASOS has confirmed it plans to charge shoppers to return items unless they keep £40 of their order. Meanwhile, Boohoo recently introduced a freight charge into New Zealand, Nike has stopped shipping here altogether and other brands have reduced their availability for Kiwi customers. Chris Wilkinson from First Retail Group says consumers need to accept that this is the way of the future. "Abuse is certainly causing most of these retailers in the UK big challenges."
