We started as an Australian owned and operated barcode label and barcode image company. Our customers regularly expressed that they would also like to buy retail barcodes for their products from us. They wanted a better deal and no annual fees. As a result, Australian Barcodes was born to help Australian businesses of all sizes get a fair shake on barcode numbers, barcode images and barcode labels. We have provided tens of thousands of barcodes to Australian companies over the last two decades, helping their products become retail-ready in the process.
At the beginning of 2023, we merged with our sister company Mr Scanman - an expert barcode system provider, who has been in business for 20 years alongside Australian Barcodes. After so many years of successful partnership, product and service cross-over, it only made sense to join forces and continue providing specialised barcode solutions to Australian companies. We can now assist you with barcode packages that are designed specifically to meet your item management and barcode labelling requirements. They include a combination of software, scanners, labels or printers to form a complete solution.
We ARE NOT an overseas company pretending to be Australian. We are Sydney-based and we welcome you to call or email us for a FREE consultation or assistance with any of our products and services.
Australian Barcodes is Australian Owned and Operated. We have been providing barcode numbers and images to Australian companies for 20 years.
We are proud of what we do.
