Which Class Recall corresponds to Wholesale Level?

Which Class Recall corresponds to Wholesale Level?

• A. Class I Recall
• B. Class II Recall
• C. Class III Recall
• D. Not a recall

Answer: (C)

Recall classifications reflect both how serious a problem is and how widely the product has been distributed. The wholesale level means the product has reached wholesalers or distributors, not yet retailers or consumers. If the issue is unlikely to cause adverse health consequences, the appropriate category is Class III, which covers low-risk problems such as minor labeling or packaging issues. So, a recall that is tied to wholesale distribution and involves a problem unlikely to cause harm fits Class III best. If the issue were more serious and could cause harm, it would warrant Class I or II with broader (retail or consumer) implications.
