GS1 Switzerland

Migros Group is now building its 'Logistics Data Marketplace' with the Norwegian platform technology provider Kezzler. The retail cooperative consistently follows the GS1 industry standard EPICS 2.0 for the data format, as the retail group also wants to make selected data accessible to external suppliers and logistics service providers via the platform.

GS1 Germany sells Atrify to 1Worldsync. The divestment unexpectedly reunites two major GDSN data pools. The 1Worldsync joint venture had only been separated in 2019, as GS1 US withdrew from the data pool business as one of the shareholders.

Denner has started to enable its suppliers to deliver their product content via industry-wide networks such as the Global Data Synchronisation Network (GDSN) and Swiss Trustbox. For this purpose, the discounter, which belongs to Migros Group, uses Bayard's Byrd platform, which it has fully integrated into its Syndigo (Riversand) system.

The GS1 organisation of Switzerland is tackling the issue of industry-wide product data management in a new way. Based on the Byrd platform from Cologne-based specialists Bayard, it will build a product content hub that will replace the current Trustbox solution, but also offer an independent Swiss connection to the Global Data Synchronisation Network (GDSN).
