How a Brampton Warehouse Eliminated Internal Theft with 4K Cameras
$40,000 lost and no way to prove anything
A mid-size auto parts distributor in Brampton had been quietly hemorrhaging inventory for over 18 months. Cycle counts kept coming up short. Management suspected internal theft but had no way to confirm it — and certainly no footage that would hold up.
Their existing analog cameras were a decade old. The resolution was so low that even standing directly in front of a camera, you could not identify a face with confidence. Plates on incoming and outgoing vehicles were completely unreadable. The footage was legally useless.
By the time they contacted Riowell, the documented losses had exceeded $40,000. Management was frustrated, HR was reluctant to act without evidence, and the insurance provider was beginning to ask uncomfortable questions about shrinkage controls.
A complete 4K camera system built for evidence
We replaced every analog camera with 4K IP units, added AI analytics to flag anomalies, and gave the owner eyes on the floor from anywhere in the world.
24 × 4K IP Cameras
Commercial-grade 4K dome and bullet cameras covering every aisle, loading dock, and exit point — resolution sharp enough to read badge numbers and identify individuals at distance.
AI Motion Analytics
On-camera AI distinguishes people from environmental motion, triggering alerts when individuals enter restricted inventory zones outside of authorized hours.
On-Site NVR + Cloud Backup
Footage stored locally on a locked NVR for 60-day retention, with encrypted cloud backup ensuring evidence is preserved even if hardware is tampered with.
Remote Viewing App
The operations director and owner can view any camera live from their phones, receive motion alerts, and pull footage clips from anywhere — without calling the office.
Two employees identified. Eight months clean.
Within six weeks of installation, the 4K footage provided clear, actionable evidence. Within eight months, inventory losses dropped to zero and their insurer took notice.
“Within six weeks we had clear footage that identified exactly what was happening. The ROI on this system paid for itself before the first year was up.”
