Act immediately upon receiving a recall notice. Remove all affected product from storage and menus first, investigate second. Document every action with timestamps.
A step-by-step response checklist for restaurant managers handling a food product recall notification. Covers recall notice review, affected product identification in stock and on menus, immediate removal from service, supplier communication, guest notification if already served, documentation for regulatory authorities, and the return-to-normal process once the recall is resolved.
Food recalls require rapid, systematic action — every affected item must be identified and quarantined within hours. A restaurant that continues serving a recalled product faces serious legal liability and reputational damage. This checklist ensures the response is complete and documented.
