Logistics Glossary:
EAN (European Article Number)
The EAN is an internationally standardized barcode that uniquely identifies articles. It is used for the automatic capture of product data in cash register systems, warehouse management, or shipping processes. The use of the EAN system facilitates global trade and avoids confusion in product labeling.
