Bar Code Labeling of Packages Sample Clauses

Bar Code Labeling of Packages. Each package must be labeled with a bar code meeting the following requirements: (a) All private-label goods (i.e., goods to be resold under TJ’s trade name) shall be labeled with an EAN-8 code, which shall be assigned by TJ’s to a product upon request by VENDOR. (b) All branded products shall be labeled with a UPC Consumer Package Code conforming to and in accordance with the guidelines and specifications of the Uniform Code Council. VENDOR shall be responsible for informing TJ’s buyer of the UPC code for a new product prior to issuance of the initial purchase order for that product and for providing TJ’s buyer with at least 30 days’ advance written notice of any changes in the UPC code for any existing products. (c) Unless the labels were printed by TJ’s, VENDOR shall be responsible for the readability of bar codes and for ensuring that the bar codes have an ANSI Symbol Grade of “C” or better per ANSI X3.182 – 1990 Bar Code Print Quality Guideline. (d) If the bar code for any product is not readable (unless the labels were printed by TJ’s) or if VENDOR failed to provide accurate or updated information concerning that product’s bar code, TJ’s, at its sole discretion, may charge VENDOR for any resulting costs and damages (including, but not limited, to the cost of recalling product from the stores and the cost of relabeling) or may reject the goods and return them to VENDOR for a full credit of the purchase price and all costs incurred in returning the goods to VENDOR.
