Manufacturing Sector Expansion
India's manufacturing industry has shown incredible resilience and improvement in recent times, contributing immensely to the need for barcode technology. The Gross Value Added (GVA) in manufacturing rose by 26.6% compared to the previous year, while industrial output rose by more than 35% in terms of value during the same period, as per the Annual Survey of Industries (ASI) 2021-22. This rapid industrial development has brought about a greater requirement for effective inventory control and streamlined processes. Barcode scanners and printers are key to realizing these goals by promoting precision and minimizing human mistakes in goods tracking. As the production facilities grow and become more sophisticated, the necessity for barcode systems becomes unavoidable to sustain competitiveness and operational effectiveness. Additionally, the ASI report indicates that basic metals, pharmaceuticals, motor vehicles, food products, and chemicals sectors contributed to around 56% of overall GVA in manufacturing. The multifaceted development across these industries reflects the widespread adoption of barcode technologies to respond to the varied requirements of production and supply chain management.
