General Merchandise

From music and entertainment to office supplies and sports and leisure equipment, Australia has a thriving and diverse retail sector.

 

Today's connected customer has high expectations when it comes to general merchandise. They expect a seamless experience, regardless of when or where they buy. This means retailers and online marketplaces are under increasing pressure to adopt emerging technologies, and to facilitate smooth transactions with suppliers and trading partners. 

GS1 standards enable businesses to increase efficiency and significantly improve traceability in their supply chains.

We are committed to using the GS1 system to help retailers achieve more streamlined and effective supply chains, and to facilitating open standards for eCommerce.
