Foodservice GS1 US Standards Initiative

Partnering with the foodservice industry to identify and overcome challenges using GS1 Standards

Today’s foodservice organizations are seeking to drive waste out of the foodservice supply chain, improve product information, and establish a foundation for food safety through better traceability. Working collaboratively as members of the Foodservice GS1 US Standards Initiative, they are encouraging the use of open, global standards to improve efficiency, accuracy, and visibility in the foodservice supply chain.

  • Driving efficiency across the supply chain
