When a recall happens, the difference between a contained event and a runaway one comes down to data. Can you identify exactly which lots are affected, where they went, and who needs to be notified — in hours, not weeks? Most companies can't answer that with confidence, and a passing audit doesn't change it. A facility can score a 98 on a Primus audit and still spend three months chasing contamination that better traceability data would have isolated in a day. This session looks at recalls from the data side: what traceability information actually determines how fast and how completely a company can contain an event, where the gaps tend to hide, and how the same data that powers containment also satisfies FSMA 204. The discussion then turns to a side of the equation most food safety teams never see — how brokers and carriers actually evaluate recall risk, and how companies can use pre-incident funds to invest in traceability and preparedness before anything goes wrong. Joining the session will be a broker from AJ Gallagher and a carrier from Euclid, who will share how recall insurance is underwritten today, why traditional audit scores are a poor proxy for containment readiness, and how pre-incident funding can turn an insurance policy into a tool for building both recall preparedness and FSMA 204 compliance. Attendees leave with a structured way to assess their own traceability readiness and a clear picture of how to translate that readiness into insurance value.
