Uniform Code Council (UCC)

The Uniform Code Council (UCC) is an organization that developed and manages standardized barcodes used in retail and supply chains to identify products efficiently. These barcodes, like the well-known UPC code, enable quick scanning for pricing, inventory management, and sales tracking. The UCC's work ensures consistency across industries, helping manufacturers, retailers, and logistics companies communicate seamlessly. By maintaining and promoting these standards, the UCC supports accurate, efficient transactions and supply chain operations worldwide.
