USE CASE:
The hard part of legal entities for logistics companies
Read this if you need legal entities for logistics companies and you would rather see the real options than a pitch. We are Mamba Labs, we build Apify actors, and Legal Entity Resolver is the one that does this for logistics companies.
The situation
Logistics companies and legal entities: the shortcuts stop working, for one specific reason. Logistics companies run on margins thin enough that any software purchase has to pay for itself in a quarter, which shapes legal entities. What catches people out on logistics companies, legal entities included: a freight forwarder, a carrier and a broker all describe themselves as logistics. We keep 1 preconfigured task for legal entities on logistics companies, across 1 tool.
Why anyone bothers
Finance needs the registered company behind logistics companies, and the brand on the website is a different string in a different country.
Traditional Search Tools
- The operator licence register, for logistics companies. Free, and it says which of the three you are looking at.
- The company's own footer. In the UK and most of the EU the registered name and number are required on the website. It is the fastest lookup there is and people forget it exists.
- Dun and Bradstreet or a KYC vendor. Built for regulated onboarding, with the coverage and the price that implies. If you have a compliance obligation you probably already have one.
- Search the register. Companies House, the SEC, the local commercial register. All free, all authoritative, and all requiring you to already know roughly what you are searching for.
