When you begin to look at colors, take a look at the fixtures and features you already have in the store. If you have natural or stained wood trim or lots of chrome framing on windows and display cabinets, those colors should work with your floor and walls. It's also important to consider your natural and artificial light sources. If you have large front windows, are they closed off or blocked by window displays. Remember deep and dark colors tend to absorb light. If you are 'light challenged' look at colors and floor treatments that can brighten and even reflect your existing light.
Your next step is to consider colors that appeal to your clientele. Primary colors are kid friendly. Pastels are often considered feminine, but light blues and greens have a relaxing and calming affect that appeal to both genders. Earth tones are commonly considered masculine colors, but they are also associated with earth-friendly industries. Neutral earth tones are the easiest to design around and do not show the dirt or scuff marks that may appear.
After you think about your potential customers, take some time to think about your product line. Is it modern and cutting edge, if so maybe some neon or bright colors may work. Are your products associated with business or executive interests, if so black trim or accent walls convey a sense of power and strength. If your product line is sexy or sensuous black is still a good choice, but so are metallic, cream, and deep shades of purple, red and pink.

Most shoplifters rationalize that store merchandise is over-priced and only benefit the owners and executives of the company at the shopper' s expense. The reality is that you, as the consumer, will pay more for merchandise as the retail outlet makes up for their loss. Shoplifters will eventually damage the targeted retail store's bottom line and increase their price points causing consumers to shop elsewhere.
To protect yourself from retail loss, it is important to understand the different types of shoplifters. There are those that simply do not wish to pay for items, others that get a thrill from stealing; some need the merchandise and lack the money, and others who steal merchandise to sell again for profit.
There are also extreme cases where people fake shoplifting to bring legal action of false accusations against the store owner. There are also political shoplifters that steal merchandise to produce economic damage to owners or store managers. Shoplifters can also be store employees and security personnel that steal internally from the company that they are employed by.
