If you’ve ever scanned a retail barcode, you’ve used a GS1 standard. Beyond point-of-sale, GS1 underpins how products are listed, shipped, received, traced, and recalled across entire supply chains. --- ### Add your Company Prefix **GS1 Company Prefix (GCP)** is the numeric “root” assigned to your company. You use this prefix to create unique identifiers.**![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-08-27%20141240-png.png?width=114&height=262&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-08-27%20141240-png.png)** 1.
