Theft seems to be quite common in Helsinki’s stores.
More specifically can tell you about typical stolen products Sami Mustonenwhich is a retailer of four K-stores located in southern Helsinki.
Mustonen starts listing the most common thefts: the most tentacles and other brewery products.
“Of course, expensive products are stolen,” says Mustonen.
Mustonen cites coffee and tenderloin as examples. He says that when the price of coffee has risen significantly, more has also been stolen.
“Before I got ten at Juhlamokoka, now I get two. Yes, it has been reflected in the thefts. ”
Also, certain cosmetic products are a little too good for thieves. For example, expensive face creams disappear from shelves without payment.
Alcohol is often among the stolen products.
Mustosella there is also a theory as to where large quantities of stolen goods go.
“Unfortunately, drugs are a huge problem in Helsinki. Many users use stolen goods as a medium of exchange. ”
According to Mustonen, political decision-makers do not take food theft seriously enough. He calls for much-talked-about conversion sentences that would result in thieves going to jail if certain sanctions are not met. However, the proposal is often criticized for not effectively addressing the addiction issues that underlie theft.
Mustonen says that the problem of spoofing is quite significant for traders. Usually, thefts are directly off the proceeds of transactions.
