Analysis of Lunar New Year Holiday Dispatch Data

ADT Caps, the physical security brand of SK Shieldus, analyzed its operating data ahead of the Lunar New Year holidays and found that dispatches to small business stores increase during the holiday period. ADT Caps urged store owners to carry out basic safety management before the holidays.


On the 10th, ADT Caps released the results of a comprehensive analysis that combined its 2025 Lunar New Year dispatch data with compensation claim cases received over the past two years from customers using its services.


The analysis showed that during the last Lunar New Year holidays, the average daily number of dispatches to small business stores increased by about 42% compared with normal periods. There was also a clear shift in the time of day when dispatches occurred. While dispatches are relatively more frequent during late-night hours on ordinary days, during the Lunar New Year holidays they tended to be concentrated in the daytime, between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. This is interpreted as a change in the distribution of dispatch times caused by differences in store management conditions during the holidays, such as broader closures of commercial districts and shortened operating hours.


Differences were also observed in the types of incidents by business sector. In manufacturing, fires accounted for 82.6% of all reported incident types, the highest share. In the restaurant sector, in addition to fires, a wide range of incidents such as storm and flood damage, supply and drainage leaks, glass breakage, and theft tended to occur together. This is seen as the combined effect of multiple factors, including gaps in store management, weather conditions, and increased use of equipment.

ADT Caps explained that, because stores are often left unattended for long periods during the Lunar New Year holidays, even simple inspections can significantly reduce the likelihood of accidents. It stressed the importance of checking basic items in advance, such as: whether power to electric heaters and kitchen equipment is completely turned off; gas valve status; supply and drainage pipes and external facilities; and whether doors and windows are securely locked.


To ensure there are no gaps in store management even during the holiday season, ADT Caps maintains a real-time monitoring and rapid dispatch system 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It immediately checks for abnormal signs inside stores, and dispatch personnel respond quickly on site not only to intrusion alarms but also to various situations such as fires and leaks. In the event of damage, the company also helps customers recover through post-incident compensation services.



An ADT Caps representative said, "During the Lunar New Year holidays, security and safety conditions can differ from usual, so extra caution is required," adding, "Through basic inspections before the holidays and our constant monitoring and dispatch system, we will help small business owners manage their stores with peace of mind even during the festive period."
