Built for CPG Supply Chain Teams

From ingredient suppliers to co-manufacturers, RecallScout monitors your entire supply chain — not just your tier-1 suppliers.

Supplier Network Monitoring

Upload your supplier list once. RecallScout continuously monitors all 10 regulatory databases and alerts you the moment any supplier in your network is named in a recall, warning letter, or import alert — across FDA, CFIA, USDA, EU RASFF, and more.

Ingredient-Level Risk Tracking

CPG recalls often originate at the ingredient level, not the finished product. RecallScout tracks recalls by ingredient category — allowing you to identify risk across all suppliers using a specific ingredient, even before a formal recall is issued.

Composite Risk Scoring

Every supplier in your network receives a composite risk score based on recall history, warning letter frequency, import refusal rate, and pathogen exposure. Scores update automatically as new regulatory data is published.

Retail Partner Audit Documentation

Major retailers — Walmart, Costco, Kroger, Target — increasingly require CPG brands to demonstrate systematic supplier risk monitoring. RecallScout generates exportable supplier risk reports for retail partner audits and FSMA compliance reviews.

Frequently Asked Questions

What regulatory databases does RecallScout cover for CPG brands?

RecallScout covers 10 regulatory databases: FDA (food, drugs, devices, cosmetics), CFIA, Health Canada, USDA FSIS, EU RASFF, UK FSA, MHRA, FDA Warning Letters, FDA Import Alerts, and CFIA inspection findings. All are cross-referenced against your supplier list in a single dashboard.

How does RecallScout help CPG brands comply with FSMA?

FSMA requires food manufacturers to have documented supplier verification programs. RecallScout provides the regulatory monitoring layer: continuous cross-database surveillance, supplier risk scores, and exportable audit reports that demonstrate systematic supplier oversight to FDA inspectors and retail partners.

Can RecallScout monitor ingredient suppliers, not just finished product manufacturers?

Yes. RecallScout matches recalls and warning letters against any company name — ingredient suppliers, co-manufacturers, contract packers, and raw material suppliers. The matching engine uses fuzzy matching to handle name variations and trade name differences.

How quickly does RecallScout alert us when a supplier is recalled?

For FDA recalls, alerts are typically issued within 2–4 hours of FDA publication. For CFIA recalls, within 2–6 hours. For EU RASFF and UK FSA alerts, within 6 hours. All alerts include the source record, affected products, and a direct link to the regulatory source.
