GS1 has unveiled an electronic location directory that connects purchasers and suppliers around Australia. The central registry, known as GS1Locatenet, improves the speed and accuracy of supply transactions and build traceability in the supply chain. The service is available to all users of global location numbers (GLNs) across all industries.

A GLN is a unique 13-digit reference number used to identify legal entities, like a registered company, and physical entities, such as a warehouse or a particular room in a building. A GLN is automatically assigned by GS1 Australia to a business when it joins as a member.

Similar to a telephone exchange, the database provides a definitive index of GLNs which are used to identify all legal, physical and operational entities in a supply chain with unique identifiers to distinguish between locations such as purchasing and billing locations, shipping destinations, eMessaging addresses and locations.
