Police systems used to track crime may be struggling to cope, with a growing number of reports coming in.
Auror is an Auckland intelligence platform used by retailers to give police information on potential offenders.
It shows retail theft reports have doubled from 4000 a month in 2022 - to 8000 a month this year.
Police Assistant Commissioner Mike Johnson says the volume gives a good idea of the total crime picture.
"We want to put together where there's prolific offenders, and deal with the other matters."
