Product recall solutions for retailers
When recalled products remain accessible, retailers have cause for concern. If a retailer isn’t notified of a recall and the product remains on store shelves, the retailer may be subject to a penalty. Government regulations have added increased complexity to retail recalls and fundamentally changed the regulation of consumer product safety – further affecting the management of global supply chains.
Ongoing communication throughout the supply chain is critical to effective product recall management and compliance, especially when dangerous or defective goods pose a risk to public health or safety. Sedgwick’s brand protection solutions offer proven product recall and market withdrawal communications support that ensure the entire supply chain is aligned and informed throughout the incident lifecycle. When time is of the essence, retail brands turn to Sedgwick’s brand protection experts to manage their product recalls and market withdrawals.
