Since then, the barcode has dramatically changed the way we shop and manage inventory. What started as a simple solution for product scanning is now indispensable in our daily lives.
But technology does not stand still. Today we see a shift towards the QR code, which offers even more information and possibilities.
Today we celebrate 50 years of innovation and progress, as we look forward to a future with innovative technologies!
