Jumping in not having researched the full thread... be sure to see also the
new framework directive/regulation on CE Marking that strives to provide legal
certainly regarding these various economic actors (manufacturer's,
distributors, importers, etc...)

That is correct, and in that case Company B would be well-advised to 
carry out sample testing on the incoming product and set up a cast-iron 
contract with the supplier so as to extract reparations if 
non-conforming product is shipped.

But it does not apply to the case cited by the enquirer, which was about 
a product manufactured outside the EU and distributed partly by a 
company within the EU and partly through other channels.
