NCCO launches DateCodeGenie® Mini, putting automated labelling in the palm of everyone’s hand Food and Beverage Business
NCCO’s DateCodeGenie® Mini can standardise labelling and compliance across multiple sites with centralised templates and reporting.

“The new DateCodeGenie® Mini lets caterers and multi-site operations label food anywhere – back of house, front of house, or on the move. In all catering environments, it keeps teams compliant, consistent and efficient.”

Since its launch in 2015, NCCO International’s DateCodeGenie® has transformed food safety in catering operations worldwide. Now, with the launch of DateCodeGenie® Mini, the same power fits in your hand.

Professional caterers and multi-site operators know that all food is subject to general labelling requirements, while prepacked food requires labelling that displays certain mandatory information. The Food Standards Agency says: “All and any labelling provided must be accurate and not misleading.” NCCO helps caterers ensure they are getting their labelling right, every time.

“The new DateCodeGenie® Mini lets caterers and multi-site operations label anywhere – back of house, front of house, or on the move,” says David Webster, Sales Director, NCCO International. “In all catering environments, it keeps teams compliant, consistent and efficient.”

DateCodeGenie® Mini transforms food safety in every catering environment. Extending DateCodeGenie® beyond the kitchen, DateCodeGenie® Mini can standardise labelling and compliance across multiple sites with centralised templates and reporting. While staff have a portable, easy-to-use tool, managers gain full visibility and control to reduce risk, save time, and drive efficiency at scale.

Portable and practical

The DateCodeGenie® Mini is an all-in-one handheld solution built for busy caterers. It can be used for a wide range of applications, adding ingredients, pricing, expiry dates, barcodes, and QR codes, all managed from the centralised online portal. It is ideal for allergen labelling to ensure compliance with existing and upcoming legislation. From September 2026, Benedict’s Law, a new mandatory statutory guidance on allergy safety in schools, for the benefit of children with allergies and their families, comes into force.

Cable-free and compact, it prints easily readable labels instantly. No handwriting, no fuss, and no ink – as it is a thermal printer. With a long-lasting battery, businesses can rely on it through service, wherever it is needed.

The DateCodeGenie® Mini is compatible with NCCO’s high-performance labels that maximise roll capacity and minimise waste – supplied in rolls of 500 (50mm x 25mm) and 250 (50mm x 50mm).

 

Smart and supported

Running on Android with an intuitive 6.7” touchscreen, the DateCodeGenie® Mini is easy for staff to learn and use, and training and 24/7 support comes as standard.

Each device includes a 7500 label starter-pack with 5000 50 x 25mm labels and 2500 50mm x 50mm labels, and businesses can order more labels whenever they are needed.

 

Reliable and future-ready

Backed by NCCO’s global infrastructure, the DateCodeGenie® Mini comes with a 2-year warranty (extendable to 3 years on ordering) and ongoing software updates.

DateCodeGenie® Mini is fully compatible with NCCO’s DateCodeGenie® product family and can also go beyond labelling. With a separate subscription to NCCO’s Task Manager tool, your team can manage digital HACCP checklists, complete daily compliance tasks, and keep critical documents up to date. The combination of DateCodeGenie® and Task Manager provides oversight, improves efficiency, and helps maintain high Scores on Doors ratings, all from this one truly portable device.
