NPK you define your operation as a trading company, can you please expand on what you do, the products you purchase and sell. I imagine it will be somewhat easier for you to establish a recall procedure for your company if you do not make anything.

In the meantime here is a good reference for food recalls

And here is some previous discussion about product recall and withdrawl

ADDED:

In the European Union the Law that pertains to this area are Articles 14, 16, 18 and 19 of General Food Law Regulation (EC) 178/2002. The UK Food Standards Agency have kindly created a guide to aid compliance with the regulations. The guidance explains what the regulation requires and also gives practical explanations and examples on how a food business could comply.

Even if you are outside the EU and not subject to these regulations you may find the guidance document useful.

I have attached it for you here.
