Company screening for logistics
Know who you’re doing business withBefore the cargo moves
Screen customers, forwarders, carriers and logistics partners with one structured company report. Bring together financial and legal information, risk signals, reputation findings and negative media to support decisions about cargo, contracts and credit.
Who it’s for
Every link in the supply chain deserves a closer look
Checks work both ways. The company handing over cargo, the company moving it and the company paying for it all need to understand their counterparties.
Customers & cargo owners
Screen forwarders, carriers and 3PL providers before entrusting them with high-value cargo. Review company identity, financial and legal risk signals, and reputation findings before appointing a partner.
Freight forwarders & brokers
Assess customers before agreeing credit terms and review carriers before assigning a load. Investigate company details, connections and reputation findings that warrant further checks.
Carriers & transport operators
Check who is booking the load and who is responsible for payment. Use available financial and legal findings to inform credit terms and follow-up questions before committing capacity.
3PL & fulfilment providers
Apply a consistent screening process to customers, transport subcontractors and warehouse partners before onboarding or expanding a relationship.
Warehouses, terminals & depots
Review the businesses involved in storage and collection arrangements. Use company-level findings to inform onboarding and follow-up questions.
The wider logistics ecosystem
Distributors, customs brokers, last-mile providers and other service partners can screen the companies they rely on using the same structured view.
Benefits
Faster reviewA consistent view of risk
Trustloom organizes available information from multiple sources into a normalized report, so teams spend less time reconciling records and more time reviewing the findings.
High-value cargo & fraud risk
Identify company-level concerns before handing over valuable goods. Review company inconsistencies and reputation findings to identify questions that need clarification.
Payment discipline & credit decisions
Review available financial, legal and reputation findings before extending payment terms. Combine the report with your own invoice history and payment experience to assess exposure.
Consistent decisions across teams
Give commercial, operations and finance teams a common structure: Company ID, Finance, Legal, Labour, Operational and Intelligence. Make findings easier to compare and questions easier to follow up.
Use the report to identify questions, seek clarification and decide whether deeper credit analysis or investigation is warranted.
Before committing to a new business partner
Before accepting a customer, appointing a supplier or engaging a subcontractor, a logistics company reviews financial and tax-discipline indicators, legal and labour events, relevant restrictions and reputation findings in a Trustloom report.
Trustloom flags patterns such as declining financial performance, recurring tax debts or repeated disputes. Available current and historical tax-debt information, sanctions and PEP exposure, relevant lists, bans and connections to risky entities add context for deciding what needs clarification before committing capacity, credit or resources.
Court involvement, investigations and allegations warrant review; they do not, by themselves, establish wrongdoing.
Company Connections Analytics and AI Investigator are included in every report.

Reputation is part of your supply chain’s value
Looking beyond price helps teams assess who represents their business throughout the supply chain. Reputation findings and negative media provide context for partner selection, conversations and follow-up checks—supporting relationships built on clearer expectations.
A finding is a starting point for review, not a verdict. Information availability varies by company, country and data source.
