The National Center for Identification of Goods and Services, GS1Iran, was established in 1995 in order to address the new international trade requirements on the identification of produced goods and services. The center serves as the country representative of International GS1 Organization. From 1995 to 2005, the center was mainly focused on creating a comprehensive identification system for all of the goods and services produced inside the country; however, since 2005, the center has been commissioned by the previous Ministry of Commerce to classify and assign identification numbers to all of the goods and services, consumed inside Iran. Currently, aside from conducting its core operations, the center has moved to put further emphasis on expanding and promoting GS1standards and solutions, along with the supply chains of different sectors in the Iranian economy.
