Spaces available for Retail Ready Masterclass with GS1

September 15, 2017 by Irish Food Awards

You have a wonderful product and an eye catching design for packaging. What’s next on your mission to making that sale? Are you Retail Ready? If you want to make it smoothly onto the store shelf and then successfully out through the checkout, it’s vital not to overlook one small element – the barcode. A barcode is not just a number. It’s your product’s “retail passport” and the product information associated with it is vital to ensuring your product moves smoothly through the supply chain and into the customer’s home.

Retail ReadyWe are delighted that GS1 will be joining us in Dingle to present a Masterclass on being Retail Ready. This session will cover the main “dos and don’ts” of this key part of your product packaging. We’ll look at the international guidelines for barcode type, size and placement and address some of the misconceptions out there about barcodes. We’ll also talk about the new role of the barcode and how it provides the vital link between your physical product and today’s digital online world.

No matter whether you have a long-established business or are a start-up, getting your product’s identification right is vital to your long term success
