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

PLU codes streamline checkout processes, improve inventory management, and provide consistency across different stores.

The system was developed by the International Federation for Produce Standards (IFPS)
