The very nature of the business (sales of Cannabis products) warrants a high degree of target hardening security features, above what a more conventional retail business may require, in order to prevent criminal activity from germinating. This should come in the form of higher security locking hardware, high resolution CCTV recording capability, a security alarm system, robust illumination levels and clear instructional signage.
