A slogan once used to promote Virginia Slim cigarettes; it can also be used to describe the history of the modern day bar code. This coming Saturday, June 26, marks the anniversary of the first bar code used in a checkout line in 1974. A pack of Wrigley’s gum was swiped across the first checkout scanner at a supermarket in Troy, OH.
What started as a mere idea in 1938 has now developed into a convenient way to track your assets. As we approach this day I’d like remind you that Seton offers many bar code labels such as DuraGuard, SetonGuard and QuickGuard to help you keep track your facility’s assets. They are ideal for equipment tracking, inventory control and help to deter theft of company items.
