The numbers on fruit stickers inform the register of the correct price and depending on the number of digits, also inform customers about how the food was grown. Moreover, the number of digits matters too. A 4 or 5-digit number indicates where and how the food was grown, in addition to the size and type of food purchased. However, if the numbers on fruit stickers have more than 5 digits, it’s not included in the “internationally standardized system.”
