Proactive Smart Security at Virginia ABC Stores

Virginia ABC stores lost over $1.6 million in stolen alcohol in 2024 alone. Verkada's intelligent unified security platform, deployed by TCI Now, gives ABC authority leadership the tools to fight back.

Verkada is transforming retail security for Virginia ABC — combining AI-powered cameras, smart theft detection, and store analytics into one easy-to-use cloud platform. Whether you're a store manager keeping an eye on daily operations or ABC leadership overseeing hundreds of locations, Verkada gives everyone the right level of visibility, from a single store to the entire statewide network.

Verkada's platform goes beyond traditional cameras. Its AI capabilities automatically detects real-world events as they happen — alerting your team the moment it spots a potential theft in progress, a person of interest walk into the building, a slip and fall on the floor, or even smoke before it becomes a serious safety incident. Then when something unusual happens at the register — like a voided transaction, an unexpected refund, or an item scanned incorrectly — Verkada links that data directly to the camera footage so your team can see exactly what happened in seconds, without scrubbing through hours of video. It's a smarter, faster way to protect inventory, keep staff safe, and maintain a great customer experience across every store.

"I had a great experience with Connor who installed my security system. Connor arrived on time, explained everything clearly, and completed the installation efficiently. The system works perfectly, and I feel much more secure knowing it’s set up properly. Customer service was responsive and professional throughout the process. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a reliable and hassle-free security system installation."

"TCI did an excellent job installing our security solution, Verkada, as a retrofit at two of our existing locations. Craig, Connor, Mike, and Scott were professional, spent time answering dozens of my questions (really extra props to Connor, because I can ask a LOT of questions), and they were very personable throughout the experience. The new solution is fantastic, and TCI was great! Highly recommended!"
