Colloquially, many know GTIN as a barcode, but technically, GTIN is the number found beneath the barcode symbol itself, and can therefore also be used for other technologies such as 2D barcodes and RFID tags.
Seimei means life force, and that is exactly how this small company from Lolland approaches the market, both in terms of retail and foodservice customers as well as consumers.
"We simply want to be best-in-class in every way, which means having the right, delicious, and healthy WiSH Juices while also being easy to do business with. One of the ways we achieve this is by making all our product master data available in GS1Trade Sync. Customers can simply retrieve everything from there," says William Feldt from Seimei, adding:
"It is important for our customers to be able to rely on the information in GS1Trade Sync being accurate, so when Coop contacted us about ensuring this through GS1Trade Exact, we thought it was another opportunity for us to show that we are a professional trading partner."
That is why Seimei quickly accepted the offer to have the master data for 10 products checked for free and to have marketing and planogram photos taken.
"It was great that it was free, but we would have done it anyway – and we certainly can't do without high-quality packshots."
Like all suppliers who use GS1Trade Exact, Seimei received a validation report after the check was completed. It shows which data needs to be corrected. However, Seimei opted for the service where GS1 corrects the company's data in GS1Trade Sync. "But when we need to create products next time, we will use the report as a template so that it's done perfectly the first time," says William.
GS1Trade Image provides professional marketing and planogram images that meet retailers' requirements and imaging guidelines.

GTIN (also known as EAN) stands for “Global Trade Item Number” and is the number sequence shown beneath a barcode symbol.
GTIN (EAN) is a global standard used to uniquely identify digital and physical products, allowing the barcode to be scanned anywhere in the world throughout the supply chain.
A GLN (also known as EAN) allows you to uniquely identify physical, functional, legal, or digital entities. This can include the sender, receiver, buyer, seller, supplier, manufacturer, delivery location, billing location, store, or internal departments.
