Crime Prevention Tips

• Keep your commercial building clean so that it does not become a target of vandalism.
• Keep your front doors and windows clear of signs and posters to allow for two-way visibility.
• Never allow individuals to loiter outside of your store. Be alert for customers who enter without a clear purpose.
• Ensure the outside of your business is well lit at night. Install security camera to deter vandals and robbers.
