About GS1

A history of success and growth

GS1 is the leading provider of global standards and barcodes in the world. With over 118 member organizations, GS1 launched a digital revolution that forever changed the way the world does business.

With a simple scan, a product could be identified and connected to a digital system. Companies of all sizes need barcode numbers to correctly identify and sell their products in stores or online, including via global retailers such as Amazon, Noon, Jumia, and others.

The power of the data captured through the barcode is helping to solve large and complex industry and supply chain challenges.
