![]() ![]() It is very difficult to IL WIC to keep track of all the different produce UPCs, so retailers can make sure that all WIC allowed produce can be purchased with a WIC card by mapping the UPCs.ALL fresh produce besides herbs, decorative fruit and vegetables, party trays, and pre-packaged produce with added ingredients is WIC allowed.For example, a bag of Honeycrisp apples can be mapped to a PLU for apples instead of the specific PLU of bulk Honeycrisp apples. It is not necessary to map varieties of items to a specific PLU.Illinois has included the PLUs set by the International Federation for Produce Standards (IFPS) for all fresh produce in the APL approved for vendor use.For example, cut up pineapple with a UPC would be mapped to a PLU for bulk pineapple. Illinois WIC strongly encourages "full" or "one-to-one" mapping, which means that a fresh produce item with a UPC should be mapped to a PLU for the same kind of item. Mapping is the process of matching UPCs of fresh fruits and vegetables in your integrated Point of Sale (POS) software to Price Look Up (PLU) codes listed in the Illinois Authorized Product List (APL). ![]()
