  • Old Barcodepedia entry, captured November 2006 unconfirmed · Compare evidence

    What the 2006-2013 Barcodepedia said about this barcode: a contributor typed the list and the container line from a bottle, and no label photograph survives to check it against. Held as unconfirmed for that reason, and superseded for the current recipe by Lucozade's 2017 and 2023 reformulations.

  • Open Food Facts record and shelf photograph, June 2023 unconfirmed · Compare evidence

    A single contributor created the record, typed the name "Lucozade original 900ml" and uploaded one photograph: bottles of Lucozade Energy Original on a shop shelf behind a euro price tag. The bottle fronts read Lucozade Energy Original and nothing else is legible, so the 900 ml net content is the contributor's figure and conflicts with the 1 litre recorded for this barcode in 2006 and 2011.

About this product

Lucozade Energy Original is the plain, orange-tinted glucose drink at the heart of the British Lucozade range, a brand created in Newcastle in 1927 as a tonic for the sick and relaunched in 1983 as an energy drink in a plastic bottle.[2] Lucozade still lists Energy as one of its four ranges, beside Sport, Alert and Zero.[3] This barcode belongs to the one-litre bottle: the 2006 Barcodepedia entry that first recorded the code describes a 1 litre plastic bottle of "Lucozade Energy (original)" with a carbonated water and glucose syrup list,[4] and a 2011 UPC Database entry repeats the litre size.[5] The code sits under a GS1 UK prefix whose licensee no public register names; GlaxoSmithKline owned Lucozade at the time and sold it, with Ribena, to Suntory in September 2013, since when the brand has been held by Lucozade Ribena Suntory Limited of Uxbridge.[2][6]

More about this product

An Open Food Facts contributor photographed bottles carrying this code on a shop shelf at 3,00 EUR in June 2023 and typed the size as 900 ml, the size of the bottle that replaced the litre in Britain; that disagreement is kept in the observations rather than resolved.[1]

Where it's sold

🇪🇸 Spain

Open Food Facts[1] derived

Listing observed
Recorded price
EUR 3.00

The only market evidence is the photograph on the Open Food Facts record for this barcode: bottles of Lucozade Energy Original standing on a shop shelf behind a 3,00 EUR shelf tag, uploaded in June 2023 and tagged Spain by the contributor. The tag's text is too blurred to transcribe and a contributor's country tag is not a source, so the country is derived from the euro price together with that claim; no listing printing this GTIN was found.

A listing is evidence that this barcode is sold there, on that date; a price is what that listing showed, not a recommended price.

Coverage & research gaps (13)

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Context: 2 / 3 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 0 / 2 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • identity · disputed: Net content: the 2006 Barcodepedia entry and a 2011 UPC Database entry both give 1 litre for this barcode, while the 2023 Open Food Facts record types 900 ml. Lucozade's litre bottle was replaced by a 900 ml bottle, and a net-content change of that size does not force a new GTIN, so the two records may describe this code at different times. Identity is recorded as the litre bottle, the size two independent records give.
  • ingredients · stale: The only ingredient list for this barcode is the one a contributor typed on the old Barcodepedia site in or before 2006. No label photograph, maker's page or retailer transcription of this pack has been found, and Lucozade Energy was reformulated in 2017 and again in 2023, so the list describes the bottle of that period only.
  • nutrition · not_researched: No nutrition panel has been found for this pack: the Open Food Facts record carries no values and its only photograph is a shelf shot in which no panel is visible.
  • markets · unknown: No retailer listing printing this GTIN was found in any country, so no United Kingdom market row is recorded even though the pack and the barcode prefix are British.
  • relationships · unknown: No public source names the licensee of GS1 prefix 5000134, so the prefix owner is derived from brand ownership rather than sourced, and the prefix is not written to any company's gs1_prefixes.
  • evidence · stale: Evidence was observed over a year ago; check for newer labels. Historical evidence remains valid.
