EANkoodia

EANkoodia, also known as European Article Number, is a standard numbering system used globally for product identification. It is a 13-digit code that uniquely identifies a specific product type, produced by a specific manufacturer. The first 12 digits are used to identify the product, while the 13th digit is a check digit used to verify the accuracy of the code.

The EANkoodia system was developed by the International Article Numbering Association (EAN International) in the 1970s. It is widely used in retail and supply chain management to streamline processes such as inventory management, pricing, and sales tracking. The system has been adopted by many countries around the world, including the United States, Canada, and Australia.

There are different types of EANkoodia, including EAN-8, EAN-13, and EAN-14. EAN-8 is an 8-digit code used for small items, while EAN-13 is the standard 13-digit code. EAN-14 is a 14-digit code used for serial numbers and other applications.

EANkoodia is an essential tool for businesses and consumers alike, as it enables efficient and accurate tracking of products throughout the supply chain. It also helps to reduce errors and improve overall efficiency in retail and supply chain management.
