Luxury goods gone, questions remain: How can Palma stop duty-free thieves?

Answer

What should duty-free staff in Mallorca do when they suspect a theft?

Staff need clear instructions for spotting suspicious behaviour and reacting quickly, rather than relying only on cameras. A fast report to security, customs or the Guardia Civil can make the difference before the suspect leaves the area. Regular joint training between shop teams and security can also improve response times.
