ALTO USA is an innovative international solution provider bringing proven asset protection and risk management programs to the North American marketplace. For over a decade, an entrepreneurial company operating in Latin America and Europe has been developing innovative, technology-based programs to help retailers and other businesses of all sizes eliminate loss due to shoplifting, internal fraud, criminal gangs, supply-chain incidents, and a host of other types of risks. Starting with a single retail store in 2003, ALTO built a unique strategy to help stem the problem of theft by criminals who repeatedly target retail stores and supply chains even after apprehension and, all too often, are released without adequate prosecution. A new approach was needed to break the cycle of retail theft and supply-chain risks. Today, the ALTO solutions are used in over 8,000 stores in six countries with retailers and logistics partners large and small successfully reducing theft incidents, enhancing customer and employee safety, ensuring an efficient supply chain, increasing revenues from better product availability, bridging the gap between retailers and law enforcement, and improving community relations that enhance the retail brand. The ALTO solutions are now available to retailers, shippers, and supply-chain partners in North America.
