      A GS1 Company Prefix is a number composed of 7-11 digits.
      
      It allows the creation of unique identifiers including Global Trade Item Numbers (GTINs) which are represented in barcodes and communicated in electronic business messages. The numbers and barcodes are used by companies to uniquely identify their products and services in the supply chain.
      
      

      The use of GS1 barcoding standards provides the following business benefits:
      
      Fast and accurate data capture at every point in the supply chain
      
      Less stock-holding and less waste
      
      Greater responsiveness to trade customers and consumers
      
      The ability to automate warehousing
      
      Better control over distribution and storage
      
      Fewer errors in the recognition of goods
