France Product Recalls: RappelConso Alerts & Barcode Check

Get every official French product recall from RappelConso, the government recall site run by the DGCCRF with the food (DGAL) and health (DGS) authorities. Food, cosmetics, baby products, toys, appliances, cars and more: about 19,000 notices since 2021, updated several times a day.

What you can do

• Check barcodes (EAN/GTIN): paste the barcodes of your catalogue or your stock and see which ones were ever recalled, with lots and best-before dates.
• Monitor recalls: filter by category, brand, retailer (Carrefour, Leclerc, Lidl…) or keyword (listeria, salmonella, allergen…).
• Alert mode: turn on only new or updated recalls and schedule the Actor daily. You only get (and pay for) recalls you have not received yet, plus new versions of existing ones.

Useful for retailers, marketplaces, e-commerce sellers, food-safety and compliance teams, insurers and consumer apps.
