Have you ever noticed how store security keeps getting better? Twenty years ago, shoplifters had an easier time stealing. But today, stores have smarter tools to catch thieves—thanks to companies like ours!

At Sunshine Protecting Limited, we’ve spent two decades inventing new ways to protect stores. Let’s take a fun trip through time to see how retail security has evolved—and how we’ve helped lead the change.

The Early Days: Simple Alarms (2000s)

When we started in 2003, most stores used basic EAS systems (those beeping alarms at doors). Back then:

  • Tags were big and bulky (sometimes ruining products)

  • Thieves knew tricks to remove them

  • Stores had no way to track what was stolen

We began by making better EAS tags—smaller, stronger, and harder to cheat.

The 2010s: Smarter Tags & Hidden Tech

By the 2010s, shoplifters got craftier—so we had to get smarter! We introduced:

✔ Mini tags – Tiny enough for jewelry and makeup
✔ Dual-alarm tags – Sound two different alarms if tampered with
✔ Hidden RFID – Invisible tracking inside products

This was also when big stores started asking for custom solutions. A shoe store might need one type of tag, while a pharmacy needed another. We learned to build exactly what each store required.

The Game Changer: RFID (2020s)

In recent years, RFID technology changed everything. Unlike old EAS tags (which just beep), RFID:

  • Tells stores exactly which item was stolen

  • Works without line-of-sight (no need to scan barcodes)

  • Can track hundreds of items per second

Since 2024, we’ve combined RFID + EAS to create the most advanced anti-theft systems yet.

How We Stay Ahead of Thieves

Shoplifters keep finding new tricks, so we’re always inventing counter-tricks:

🔹 AI Security Cameras – Can spot suspicious behavior before theft happens
🔹 Smart Shelves – Alert staff when high-theft items are moved
🔹 Unremovable Tags – Designed to break if forcibly removed

We test our products against real theft methods to ensure they work.

Real-World Impact: Numbers Don’t Lie

Our tech isn’t just cool—it gets results:

📉 Stores using our systems see 30-60% less theft
⏳ Our RFID cuts inventory time from hours to minutes
💡 New products developed every 6 months to outsmart thieves

The Future: What’s Next?

We’re already working on tomorrow’s security:

🚀 Facial Recognition – Identifying known shoplifters
🌐 IoT Security – Connecting all store devices for better protection
🛒 Checkout-Free Stores – Like Amazon Go, but with our security built in

Why This Matters to Everyone

Less theft means:

✔ Lower prices for honest shoppers
✔ Fewer store closings (shoplifting costs billions yearly)
✔ Safer shopping experiences
