The Center for Identification Systems offers consumers barcode symbol file master development services for product manufacturers and packaging manufacturers under an outsourcing agreement and is looking for partners interested in a distribution services agreement.

To read the price from the packaging of goods in logistics and trade systems (in warehouses, transport, trading floors, etc.), the packaging must have a number printed in the form of a graphic symbol of the EAN International (GS1) bar code. The customer of the bar code symbol should submit to the printing house the original bar code image in electronic form, the so-called FILE MASTER, which is produced using licensed software and special equipment in strict compliance with international and national standards of the Republic of Belarus.
