Verified by GS1 (VbG) is a global initiative by GS1, the organization responsible for global standards within the supply chain automation context. VbG intends to ensure that the product identification in a given market is unique, accurate and verifiable. This is made by means of validation of basic product information, such as the Global Trade Item Number (GTIN), an international identification number for tradeable goods, the product image, unit of measure, target country and other product attributes. The VbG benefits include greater efficiency for brand owners, which can simplify the data sharing process and speed up market entry, in addition to increasing brand integrity by improving the visibility of data quality. ➡️ For Retailers, VbG reduces time and costs of gathering and checking data, reducing the risks of improper use of GTIN, and also optimizing listings and business processes. ➡️ For consumers, it results in more reliable product information and richer purchase experiences, increasing satisfaction and reducing purchase returns.  Liked the content?

Traceability can be a component in the fight against child labor, as it makes it possible to monitor both the production and logistics processes, ensuring that products are not the result of child exploitation. Of course in this context, product traceability would need to be combined with traceability of raw materials, manufacturing floor assets, workers, and so on. In addition, it can support the implementation of effective public policies and the enforcement of labor laws, such as those established by the Consolidation of Labor Laws (CLT) in Brazil, which protect children and adolescents from exploitative work. International organizations, such as the International Labor Organization (ILO) and the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), also emphasize the importance of traceability in combating child labor, promoting standards and actions aimed at eradicating this practice and protecting children's rights.

Visibility is critical in modern Supply Chain Management (SCM)🚛🚀 Many use cases are linked to the Visibility concept such as: tracking of goods for different business purposes (predictive planning, logistics automation, etc.), real-time cargo traceability, real-time or near real-time sensoring information (humidity, temperature, light exposure, etc.). It also enables proactive decision-making and anticipation of corrective measures when necessary. With accurate, up-to-date information, companies can improve effectiveness, customer satisfaction, decrease operational risks, and so on. In a global market, where unforeseen events such as adverse weather conditions and market volatility can significantly impact logistics, visibility becomes a strategic differentiator for organizations.
