EAN-13 (GTIN-13) – It is a commonly used barcode category for retail products in India and globally. This 13-digit code uniquely identifies a product and ensures seamless scanning at checkout counters.
Barcodes may seem like mere zebra stripes on products! However, they are the unsung heroes of the modern eCommerce and retail industries. Barcodes perfectly orchestrate an intricate dance between products and scanners and make inventory management easy.
At their core, barcodes are data-encoding components that translate valuable product information into a simple language readable by scanner machines. Each line and space in barcodes represents a unique narrative about a product’s identity, price, and more.
The scanner illuminates the lines pasted on a barcode to decode the story within it. It’s a secret handshake between the product you are selling and the technology. From grocery stores to warehouses, barcodes can streamline operations and ensure accuracy and efficiency in inventory management, sales tracking, and beyond.
