PLU codes, which stands for Price Look-Up codes, are 4 or 5-digit numbers used in grocery stores and supermarkets to identify fresh produce items.

  • 4-digit codes are for conventionally grown produce
  • 5-digit codes starting with 9 indicate organic produce
  • 5-digit codes starting with 8 were originally intended for GMO produce, but are rarely used
