Any idea.....

[Capt. Corona]

what this for or why it's on the box?

Looks to be burnt (branded) in?  I looked at a lot of boxes I have (but not all) and this is a first I noticed.

Might be an vendor's way of tracking inventory. Otherwise weird stuff happens in factories.?

Origin of box please?

[LordAnubis]

I wonder if it’s a marking on the raw wood the box is made from? 
 

and no don’t name a vendor for origin!

It may be.....not sure.  Just curious if anyone else had seen similar.

Yes, common vendor/retailer marking

I had noticed the same code on Magnum 54 box I received last week.
