GS1 US to Host a Free Webinar on Supply Chain Innovations

GS1 US is excited to announce an informative, free webinar scheduled for April 24, 2025, at 2:00 PM ET.

The webinar aims to shed light on the crucial role that EPCIS plays in improving supply chain visibility and facilitating better collaboration among different partners in the supply chain ecosystem. EPCIS, a standard developed by GS1, is designed to enable organizations to track and share detailed information regarding the movement and status of products throughout the supply chain, ensuring they are always aware of the whereabouts and conditions of their goods.
