Understanding UPC Barcodes
Learn about Universal Product Codes and how they power global commerce
What is a UPC Code?
A Universal Product Code (UPC) is a unique 12-digit barcode assigned to retail products for tracking and identification. First introduced in 1974, UPCs have become the global standard for product identification in retail, enabling efficient checkout, inventory management, and supply chain tracking.
Every UPC is registered through GS1 (the global standards organization) and contains two key components: the manufacturer identification number and the product item number, along with a check digit for validation.
