This industry research report identifies Axis Communications, Bosch, Checkpoint Systems, Crossmatch, Honeywell, and Tyco Security as the key vendors in the global physical security market in the retail sector. This report also presents a competitive analysis of the physical security market share by type (EAS, video surveillance, and access control and intruder alarm system) and by geography (the Americas, APAC, and EMEA).
Overview of the global physical security market in the retail sector
Market research analysts at Technavio have predicted that the global physical security market size in the retail sector will grow steadily at a CAGR of more than 6% by 2020. Retail shrinkage is the loss of a store's inventory and occurs due to several reasons such as employee theft, shoplifting, supply chain theft, and administrative errors. The recent years have witnessed a considerable increase in the level of retail shrinkage, and shoplifting has been identified as the biggest cause of retail shrinkage in most countries. This will induce retailers to adopt various strategies to approach losses from a wider perspective from all levels within the organization. Since physical security solutions such as EAS, intruder alarms, and surveillance systems help to control the inflow and outflow of products and enable reduced retail shrinkage, there will be an increase in the demand for physical security systems in the coming years.
This market research identifies the emergence of thermal cameras as one of the major physical security market trends gaining traction in the coming years. Thermal cameras use infrared radiation to capture images and are heat and water-resistant, which makes them ideal for monitoring large-scale or unique outdoor environments. Moreover, increased government grants for the purchase of efficient surveillance equipment will also increase the demand for thermal cameras as they are an excellent addition to complete physical security systems.
Competitive landscape and key vendors
This market is characterized by the presence of several large- and small-scale vendors who compete with each other to gain a considerable share of the market. In this market, the security system providers focus on delivering innovative retail security solutions with high efficiency, as it will result in the development and introduction of innovative retail security systems. To sustain the level of competition and to retain their share of the market, vendors are trying to provide customized security services to retailers. Major physical security companies have also started following M&A strategies and acquire small companies to increase their product portfolio.
Some of the leading vendors in the physical security market are -
- Axis Communications

Segmentation by type and analysis of the physical security market in the retail sector
- Access control and intruder alarm system
- EAS (electronic article surveillance)
- Video surveillance
According to this market study, the video surveillance market segment will continue its dominance in the market throughout the forecast period and will post an impressive revenue of more than USD 2 billion by 2020. The demand for video surveillance has induced vendors to introduce products that provide HDTV image quality both in real-time and recordings and also combines video surveillance with intelligent video functions and analytic tools. Since these devices enable efficient loss prevention in retail stores, in merchandising, and other store operations, there will be a constant demand for video surveillance equipment in the coming years.

- Americas
- APAC
- EMEA
This market study estimates that in terms of geography, the Americas will account for more than 46% shares of the physical security market in the retail sector by 2020 and will also dominate this market throughout the forecast period.
