HOW TO CREATE A BARCODE
FOR A PRODUCT?

Step 1: Create your product codes
UPC: Exclusively for the retail
supply chain; it is not the code you
will use internally or the barcode
you will scan in your POS system
SKU: Allow you organize your
inventory systematically using
letters and numbers

Step 2: Make a barcode for each product

Step 3: Print your barcode labels
Barcode printers are designed
specifically for printing high-
quality barcode labels quickly
and efficiently

HOW TO CREATE
BARCODES WITH GS1?
Make sure your barcodes are developed
and registered with GS1 if your long-
term goal is to sell your goods in other
stores that employ various point-of-sale
systems
