OMRON Industrial Automation Vietnam Partners with GS1 Vietnam to Help Businesses Build Future-Ready, Traceable Supply Chains
As Vietnam moves towards mandatory product traceability, OMRON Vietnam joins GS1 Vietnam as an accredited Premium Solution Partner — bringing advanced automation and sensing technologies to help businesses get ahead of regulatory change and unlock the full value of supply chain digitalisation.
HANOI — OMRON Vietnam Co., Ltd. announced it has been formally recognised as a GS1 Vietnam Premium Solution Partner, marking a significant milestone in supporting Vietnamese businesses to embrace product serialisation, traceability, and supply chain digitalisation.
GS1 Vietnam is legally represented by the National Numbering and Barcodes Center (NBC), operating under the Ministry of Science and Technology’s Directorate for Standards, Metrology and Quality. NBC is the sole organisation representing Vietnam within GS1 International and is responsible for implementing the GS1 System in Vietnam — including the issuance of GS1 Barcodes and global trade identifiers used across industries.
This accreditation positions OMRON Vietnam as a trusted technology partner for businesses seeking to operationalise GS1 Standards — embedding traceability and data accuracy directly into their production lines, packaging operations, and logistics workflows.
A TIMELY PARTNERSHIP FOR VIETNAMESE BUSINESSES
Vietnam’s supply chain landscape is at an inflection point. The Vietnamese government has issued Decree No. 37/2026 on product and goods traceability, signalling a clear national direction towards mandatory traceability requirements. While implementation guidelines across ministries and product categories are still being harmonised, businesses that act now will be best positioned to comply — and to gain a competitive advantage — as regulations come into effect over the next two to three years.
At the same time, the global shift from traditional 1D barcodes to data-rich 2D symbols — driven by GS1’s Sunrise 2027 initiative — is creating new opportunities for Vietnamese manufacturers and exporters to align with international supply chain standards, improving access to global markets and strengthening trust with overseas partners and retailers.
For businesses navigating this dual pressure of domestic regulation and global market expectations, OMRON Vietnam and GS1 Vietnam offer a clear, practical path forward.
“Vietnamese businesses are facing a pivotal moment — regulatory change is coming, and global supply chain expectations are rising. As a GS1 Vietnam Premium Solution Partner, OMRON is committed to helping manufacturers and supply chain operators get ahead of these shifts. Our automation and sensing technologies make it practical for businesses to embed GS1 Standards into their operations today, building the traceability infrastructure they will need for tomorrow.”
Mr. Phung Duy Han, General Director - OMRON Industrial Automation Vietnam
“We are pleased to welcome OMRON Industrial Automation Vietnam as a GS1 Vietnam Premium Solution Partner. OMRON’s expertise in automation and smart manufacturing strengthens our ability to support Vietnamese businesses in adopting GS1 Standards at the operational level. This partnership is an important step in building a more traceable, transparent, and competitive supply chain ecosystem in Vietnam.”
Mr. Bui Ba Chinh, Director - GS1 Vietnam / National Numbering and Barcodes Center (NBC)
