Could you please describe what mechanism you recommend be implemented in order to satisfy this duty?
Please recognize that the solution must be reasonably effective, must shield the business from the liability found, and must be such that any business which would otherwise be similarly liable would be able to implement it.
It's hard for me to picture every shoe-shine stand or coffee kiosk being responsible for the criminal acts of others, but apparently that is your assessment.
Or is it merely the size of the corporation which triggers this duty?
Security Guards. You’ve heard of them, no doubt. Perhaps have seen them.

Fact is, any normal business owner operating in a high risk environment is wise to secure his business, employees, customers and etc. As we all know - when seconds count....
As you know - this Mickey D’s had a history of police calls regarding criminal activity. A security guard may not solve all problems, but in hindsight, it would have saved them 27 million.
