GEPIR
The GS1 GEPIR (Global Electronic Party Information Registry) was a distributed database that contains basic information on over 1,000,000 companies in over 100 countries. The database could be searched by GTIN code (includes UPC and EAN-13 codes), container Code (SSCC), location number (GLN), and (in some countries) the company name. A SOAP webservice exists.

GEPIR had about 600.000 members in 72 countries.[1] In 2012 this increased to more than 1M members in more than 100 countries.[2] In 2013, all 111 member organisations joined GEPIR.
As of end December 2023, GEPIR was replaced by a new service called Verified by GS1.[3]
