GS1 Standards and Services
GS1 is the leading supplier of barcodes in Ghana and the world. Our standards are the most widely used system of standards, and we offer a portfolio of services and tools to make adoption of our standards easier and more impactful for your business. GS1 standards make it easier for millions of organisations to share information.
But what standards are there and how could they help you? What products do you sell? Where are they located? How much do they cost? When are they good until? The barcode - our most common standard — is used by retailers, manufacturers and suppliers. Whether selling your products in a retail store or online or managing a shop or website, it makes you more efficient. All our standards help you identify, capture and share key information about products, locations and assets. Whether tracking items from assembly to sale or making it easy to receive orders and issue invoices, business runs smoothly with GS1 standards.
Identify products with
GTINs
Global Trade Item Numbers [GTIN] can be used by companies to uniquely identify all of their products.
Capture data with GS1 barcodes
Manage all your products and streamline sales with our world-leading barcodes.
Share data with global platforms
Networks like the GDSN allow trade items to be shared, sourced and managed from supplier to seller.
Save time and money
Our standards enable intelligent automation. Share information without thinking about it, reduce back-and-forth communications and get things done faster.
Be more accurate
When you reduce data entry, you reduce errors. For example, electronic invoicing can streamline financial processes by recording, paying and tracking transactions automatically.
Build stronger relationships
Standards allow you to focus on what you have to say, rather than how you say it. And that means you can focus on increasing customer satisfaction and repeat business.

Frequently Asked Questions

A GS1 barcode is essentially a number represented by an image of varied widths of black bars on a white surface. The barcode is scanned by a scanner at the point of sale, each time the product is purchased at the store. The scanner then pulls up the information that is assigned to that particular barcode number - such as the company name, product information and price. Each sale is recorded, which assists with keeping accurate inventory data - making it easier for Trading Partners to notify you when they need more products to be sold.
