Final Thoughts

Next time you’re holding a product in your hand, take a moment to look at the barcode. With just a few digits, you can tell:

  • What the product is
  • Who made it
  • Where it’s from (in some cases)
  • That it’s been verified for sale with a built-in error-checking system

It’s like a fingerprint for the product — small, quiet, but packed with information.
