DirectBarCodes.comOver 1 million companies conduct business efficiently with their customers around the world using UPC barcodes."UPC" stands for Universal Product Code. UPC bar codes were originally created to help grocery stores speed up the checkout process and keep better track of inventory, but the system quickly spread to all other retail products because it was so successful.
