Major Indian garment manufacturers of brands like Levi's, John Player, Arrow, Wrangler, Allen Solly, Louis Philippe, Van Heusen, Peter England, San Frisco and Byford, alongwith top retailers like Shoppers' Stop, Piramyd Megastore, and ITC Lifestyle are working towards implementing collaborative supply chain practices and global standards by adopting the universal EAN barcode. EAN.UCC standards will enable common and unambiguous identification of garments and other general merchandise by retailers, manufacturers and their other distribution supply chain trading partners. This will immediately eliminate the current practice of affixing proprietary item barcodes by retailers on their garments and other general merchandise, saving a huge amount in direct barcode labeling costs.
