I'd wager almost all shoplifting has nothing to do with organized crime. You'll get the occasional junkie trying to steal and then sell something moderately expensive like laundry detergent, but mostly it's individuals taking a crime of opportunity for themselves. At least it seemed that way when I worked in a grocery store for a while based off our inventory and security. A couple blatant alcohol grab and runs by homeless alcoholics, a couple small luxury items like a nicer cut of meat that someone didn't want to pay for, small items like candies or toys, and a couple necessities or staples like loaves of bread (and I do feel bad for anyone stealing cheap bread).
