QUESTION 3: CASE STUDY

Product recalls can have a big impact on a business, both financially and in terms of the impact
on the business's image. Recalls must be managed well to ensure that they do not lead to
excessive costs or harm an organisation's reputation. In 2011 Massmart, a large South African
retail group, issued a product recall notice for multi-plug adaptors and extensions cord units
that it had sold through its various wholesale and retail chains.
What do you think is the company's financial impact resulting from the product recall?
