GEPIR (Global Electronic Party Information Registry) is a unique, internet-based service that gives access to basic contact information for companies that are members of GS1.
These member companies use GS1's globally unique identification system to identify their products, physical locations, or shipments.
By simply typing a product bar code number into GEPIR, anyone can find the owner of that barcode's contact information.
Physical location numbers and Shipment numbers can also be used as search criteria.
Global Trade Item Number (GTIN), Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Trade_Item_Number
The Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) is an identifier for trade items, developed by the international organization GS1. Such identifiers are used to look up product information in a database (often by entering the number through a barcode scanner pointed at an actual product) which may belong to a retailer, manufacturer, collector, researcher, or other entity. The uniqueness and universality of the identifier is useful in establishing which product in one database corresponds to which product in another database, especially across organizational boundaries.
