What is the Standard Color & Size Code System?
The NRF Standard Color and Size Codes are standards used in the implementation of U.P.C. (Universal Product Code) as a vehicle to achieve color and size identification of general merchandise and apparel for EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) purposes. For further information and publications on EDI, contact the Uniform Code Council (UCC) at (937) 435-3870. The NRF Standard Color and Size Codes are used with the supported version of the VICS (Voluntary Inter-industry Communication Standards) EDI Price Sales Catalog (832) Transaction Set. The codes are required minimum data elements required to identify a vendor’s product to a retailer on a color and size level.
