Case Code

Definition

A manufacturer-assigned identifier printed on a product case or packaging that is used to track production details, such as manufacturing date, lot number, or plant location. Case codes support traceability, inventory management, and recalls.

How It's Calculated

Example

A dairy brand uses case codes to trace a quality issue back to a specific production run, allowing targeted removal of affected cases from retailer distribution centers.
