The DateCodeGenie® Mini from NCCO International is a compact, handheld label printer created in response to customer demand. Designed for cafés, CPUs, dark kitchens, caterers and multi-site operators, it brings professional food labelling and digital food safety management into the palm of your hand – combining automation, portability and reliability in one device.
Developed with Our Customers, Designed for Every Kitchen
At NCCO International, we’re always listening to our customers. Many told us they needed a smaller, more flexible food labelling system, one that could deliver the same automation and compliance benefits as the DateCodeGenie range, but without the footprint or higher cost of a full terminal.
In a time when food businesses are focused on improving efficiency and controlling costs, the DateCodeGenie Mini handheld label printer offers an accessible way to do both. Each customer owns their device outright with a simple one-off purchase, while a low-cost monthly subscription provides access to the DateCodeGenie software, label replenishment, ongoing updates and 24-hour support.
This balance of ownership and service delivers lasting value, helping operators improve accuracy, meet HACCP compliance, reduce food waste and maintain allergen labelling standards. From independent cafés to multiple location enterprises, CPUs and dark kitchens, the Mini gives teams a flexible, future-ready way to manage labelling and food safety wherever they work.
Compact, Connected and Built for Modern Foodservice
Every operation is different, and the Mini was built to adapt. Whether it’s used in a high-volume CPU, a compact back-of-house prep area or a mobile catering setup, it delivers professional, HACCP-ready labels using recyclable 25mm x 50mm and 50mm x 50mm thermal rolls. Built on Android, it offers a simple touchscreen interface and ink-free printing for quick, accurate and sustainable results.
The Mini provides the same trusted performance as our full-size DateCodeGenie terminals, helping teams maintain consistent standards across all areas of their operation without the need for extra space or complex setup.
Part of the Wider DateCodeGenie Labelling Universe
The Mini is part of our NCCO labelling universe, where digital and manual systems work hand in hand. It complements both terminals and handwritten labels, giving operators flexibility to label and track food in the way that suits their kitchen best.
Through one shared DateCodeGenie account, teams can manage label templates with ingredients, allergens, and expiry dates, ensuring compliance with HACCP principles, UK/EU Food Information Regulations, and broader food safety management standards. Whether you’re managing a single café, a multi-site group, or a network of dark kitchens and production hubs, every label remains accurate, traceable and compliant.
More Than a Label Printer
The DateCodeGenie Mini is more than a food label printer, it’s a portable digital hub for safer, smarter kitchens. With NCCO Task Manager available on the same device, teams can complete digital checklists, cleaning logs and food safety tasks alongside labelling. This integration helps operators stay audit-ready, maintain standards and strengthen accountability across every shift.
Backed by NCCO International’s global infrastructure, software updates and 24-hour support, the Mini grows with your business, supporting a more efficient, compliant and sustainable approach to food labelling and safety.
