Barcode scrambled use is more common in imported goods
Recently, news has revealed that an amino acid drink liquid called Red Bull purchased from abroad uses corporate barcodes indiscriminately. The barcodes originally limited to fruit and vegetable beverages and purified aquatic products have been misused on this product. In view of this The negative impact of the behavior on the market was discovered on the same day, and the merchants selling this series of goods were punished accordingly.
During this period, the Quality Supervision Bureau established a special inspection team for product barcodes, and conducted surprise inspections on many supermarkets and pharmacies in the city before and after. Many of the products in the shops were found to be indiscriminately posted barcodes. These were investigated. In addition to being ordered to immediately remove the products with problems, the correct barcodes must be provided again before they can be sold again. The law enforcement officers also imposed financial penalties on the stores with more serious cases in accordance with the law.
The domestic clothing industry also appears to use foreign barcodes indiscriminately. When inspecting a clothing store in the city, the inspector obviously found that the barcode of one of the domestic clothing brands was incorrect, because the country-specific number at the beginning of the barcode turned out to be the foreign country’s 60, and then carefully checked it with computer recognition software. It was soon discovered that this was a series of counterfeit branded clothing products, from the manufacturer to the production address; in addition, the inspectors also found out that many of the small-scale food companies nearby were troublesome or not. Willing to publish product information, always delaying processing, even indiscriminately fabricating a string of numbers and printing it on the product’s trademark, or simply using barcodes of other similar products to deceive consumers, and the quality of these products is generally low There is a problem. Therefore, the inspector reminds everyone: usually when purchasing goods in the supermarket, you must be particularly cautious. You must check the product barcodes and corresponding certification materials of the manufacturer, and check the checkpoints of the purchase channels to ensure that the quality of the goods is free and the safety of the circulation channels , And at the same time protect yourself from economic losses.
Whether the barcode is used correctly is closely related to the quality of the product. In this special action in a certain city, the products that were found to have bar code problems included food, medicine, clothing, home appliances, etc. One thing that these products have in common are foreign products, and most of them are consumers’ daily necessities. It is closely related to the interests of the people. During my visit, the author also learned that at present, many merchants in our country are ignorant of commodity barcode issues. The purchasers of many shops do not know the concept of barcode at all. Therefore, when inspectors use computer recognition software to verify commodity barcodes, they still I feel very curious about this. Law enforcement officials told the merchants: commodity barcodes are not just a form. Problems with it will cause confusion in the identification of commodities entering the market. At the same time, if a beverage is made on the barcode, the name of the manufacturer and the product are asymmetrical, or even counterfeit. Yes, then the quality of this product is difficult to guarantee.
