What is a GLN?

Some retailers may ask you to provide your GLN (Global Location Number) during a registration.

A GLN is a globally recognized code used to identify locations within a business — such as company headquarters, warehouses, or departments. It is part of the GS1 system and helps standardize supply chain information.
