GS1 Germany GmbH operates in IT services and IT consulting, enabling standardized approaches to identifying and exchanging data about products, locations, and assets.

The GS1 system, including the machine-readable barcode and GTIN identifiers, underpins a universal standard for global trade, with billions of product scans occurring daily. The organization's origins trace back to 1974, when a barcode was scanned in a supermarket, marking the start of automated checkout and the GS1 story.

Two million companies in more than 20 industries worldwide rely on this shared language to clearly identify products, locations, and assets, capture relevant data, and exchange it with partners in value networks. GS1 Germany is based in Köln, in the North Rhine-Westphalia region of Germany, and operates as a mid-sized company within the IT services and IT consulting sector, aligned with the global GS1 framework.
