ECR Retail Loss Group

The ECR Retail Loss Group is a retailer-manufacturer working group focused on creating imaginative new ways to, together, better manage the problems of on-shelf availability, shrink and food waste.

It focuses on commissioning and disseminating new, independent and academic led research to help the industry tackle the stubborn problems of out of stocks, shrink and food waste.
