Why does a philistine need barcodescountries producing goods? And do you need to know them all? Naturally, it is impossible to learn all barcodes, but modern technologies allow you to always keep on hand a sign with the numbers of all these symbols. Is it really necessary? Let's figure it out.
This is a kind of image that carriesinformation about the product. It is put on consumer and transport packaging. First of all, the barcode is designed to be read by modern cash registers, which greatly simplifies the procedure for identifying goods. What are the main functions of such an image?
But it would be wrong to say that the barcode is needed only to facilitate the work in the trade sphere. An ordinary person can also take a lot of useful information from him.
Не секрет, что практически в каждой стране some kind of commodity is produced which you will not find anywhere else in the world. And if such a product and will meet, it will be nothing more than a good fake, let and licensed. Many people, getting into such a country, cannot resist and not bring real Cuban cigars or, for example, the legendary Scotch whiskey to their homeland. The list of unique products can be continued, but this is not important. It would be foolish to assume that in any store in Cuba only real cigars are sold and that Turkish hookahs do not fake. In the same China, for example.
To protect yourself from mistakes, enoughcheck the bar codes of countries producing goods on the package. Nowadays, they must be present on all things, unless, of course, they are not made by artisanal means in illegal production.

So what to do after you found onpackaging barcode? We need the first three digits (sometimes two). This is where the barcodes of the countries producing the goods are indicated. Often, the entire code consists of 13 numbers, as well as black and white stripes of different thickness.
