What are risks Jewelry Stores could face?

It’s easy to think that jewelry stores only face one significant risk – theft. That is a big risk, but there are others along with it you need protection against:

  • Damage to Jewelry: Many jewelers offer jewelry repair and cleaning. Customers trust you with their most prized possessions, but accidents do happen. If you damage, break or misplace their jewelry, you will need to pay to make it right.
  • Dishonest Employees: Hiring honest employees should be easy, but once in awhile a bad employee is plausible. Jewelry store employees work directly with the merchandise, and over time it’s easy for them to steal or embezzle funds.
  • Fire Damage: Nobody wants to think about a fire, but they do happen. When a fire destroys your building and all of its contents, the cost to rebuild and replace in addition to being without an income is enough to put you out of business indefinitely.
