NPC Xpress Logo

A single, secure platform built by GS1 for sharing product data and digital images with all your trading partners.

A SINGLE SOURCE OF TRUTH FOR YOUR PRODUCT DATA

 

Detailed product information is essential for creating a unique identity and selling point for your product, making your product recognisable across trading partners and, most importantly, by your customers. But, the more places that hold your product data, the harder it becomes to maintain. You need more time, more staff, and more checks in place to ensure every data set is correct and aligned.

The NPC simplifies the management of product data.

Enter, validate, store, and maintain your product data all in one place. When your product information changes (e.g. pricing updates), just update this in NPC and it will automatically flow out to your trading partners. The NPC allows you to share structured master data that meets all of your trading partners’ requirements.

YOUR RECORDS.
YOUR DECISION.

 

With NPC Xpress, you can choose the amount of data you want the National Product Catalogue to hold about your product. Within NPC Xpress, there are three levels of data set, covering everything from basic price and product naming, through to images and product renders, dimensions and weights, and even romance copy.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED,
ALL IN ONE PLACE

 

There’s so much to worry about when running a business. Your product data shouldn’t be one of them. With the National Product Catalogue and GS1’s NPC Xpress service you only need to upload your product data once. Your data is validated for accuracy by GS1 Australia - available to edit by you at all times - and then shared with your trading partners.
