How to Get Started with UPC Barcodes

In today’s global marketplace retailers, wholesalers, and online marketplaces require a unique identifier to be assigned for every product. For the United States, this product identifier is the UPC barcode (GTIN-12). UPCs can consist of two primary components: a U.P.C. Company Prefix and a Product Number (left image above) or can be a GTIN assigned to the company for the specific product (right image above).
