Risks multiply with every step in the supply chain. Once a recall is announced, your company’s real and perceived actions will be amplified by social media. And the cost of removing, repairing and replacing shelf-stock may quickly spiral. Regardless of what you manufacture, a rapid and definitive response can mitigate brand reputational risks in the hours, weeks, and months to come.
