False or misleading product declarations by a retailer could lead to heavy repercussions, hefty fines, or legal action.
In the U.S., the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) mandates that retailers have a legal obligation to report a product that may pose a substantial risk or cause injury.

As a retailer, your bottom line depends on protecting your reputation and selling products that keep your consumers coming back. But what can you do to help verify the safety and quality of the products you sell or are considering stocking on your shelves?
