How do I get a Barcode for my company or myself?
All retail products sold in the US have a UPC or Uniform Product Code somewhere on the product. This code is made up of of two parts. The first part of the symbol identifies the manufacturer of the product (you). The Uniform Code Council (UCC) assigns manufacturers these unique numbers to be used in making a UPC symbol for your product. You can contact the council at:
