Key Recommendations
1. Economic operators should label their consumer products at least with a product
identification code and contact details of the responsible economic operator
2. Economic Operators should automate their traceability system by using data
capture, data recording and data exchange technologies with applicable global
standards
3. Economic Operators should get trained on traceability in order to be aware of
traceability benefits, understand best practices and get the knowledge to choose
and implement the most relevant tools to automate traceability within their
organisation.
4. Traceability assessment exercises should be conducted across the chain with the
cooperation of market surveillance authorities and trade associations.
5. Information about how to use barcodes / product codes to get additional
information should be included in trainings for market surveillance authorities.
6. Best practices for market surveillance authorities to follow should be developed for
best use of available information when products are crossing borders within the
EU, including real case studies.
7. Consumer associations should raise awareness on the importance of product
identification and inform consumers on possibilities to alert authorities on
suspicious products.

A need for global standards…

GS1 Standards for identifying, capturing, and sharing
information—about products, business locations, and
more—make it possible for companies to speak the same
language, connect with each other, and move their
business forward.

and gain their recognition or endorsement.
Benefits
For the consumer:
access to safe products and
improved trust in the supply
chain
For the industry:
leveraging the use of GS1

Clear drivers for change
Retailer
• Competitive advantage/Differentiation (especially for
high-end products)
• To restore consumer trust
• Economic (through more effective recalls and
withdrawals)
• Sustainable sourcing
• Ethical sourcing
Supplier • The same drivers as retailers
Regulatory • Regulations due to consumer pressure or safety
Consumers • Demand for visibility of greater product information
• “It’s expected”
Technological • Becomes default/affordable/easy to adopt

Key Safety Regulations
21
• US Bioterrorism Act
• US FDA Food Safety Modernisation Act (FSMA)
• US Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA)
• EU Food Law (EC) 178/2002
• EU General Product Safety Directive (GPSD) to be replaced soon by a
new EU Product Safety Regulation
– GS1’s focus is on general safety regulations for all relevant food products
and non-food consumer goods, especially those traded internationally
– Sector-specific regulations and other local regulations exist in addition to
the above
