About us | Cedar Rose

Build secure trade and freight networks with supplier screening and monitoring.

Transport and logistics organisations depend on reliable partners to keep global supply chains moving. Every freight forwarder, carrier, shipping agent, and subcontractor must be verified to avoid sanctions exposure, financial instability, falsified documentation, or hidden ownership risk. Cedar Rose delivers multilingual, verified intelligence that strengthens partner selection and supports secure, compliant, and efficient operations.

The Compliance Backbone for Fast, Reliable Global Logistics

Global logistics networks stretch across jurisdictions with inconsistent records, opaque ownership structures, and differing regulatory controls. These gaps can hide risks that disrupt shipments, create compliance breaches, or damage reputations. Cedar Rose consolidates legal, financial, and reputational data from trusted registries, multilingual researchers, and regional networks. Our structured intelligence helps operators evaluate carriers, agents, suppliers, and subcontractors with clarity, ensuring compliance while maintaining operational speed.

KYB & Partner Verification

Verified legal status, licensing, governance, and ownership details ensure carriers, freight forwarders, shipping agents, subcontractors, and suppliers are legitimate and compliant. This prevents engagement with fraudulent operators or high-risk intermediaries and strengthens supply-chain stability by ensuring all partners meet regulatory and operational standards.

Sanctions, PEP & Adverse Media Screening

Screening across global sanctions lists, PEP databases, and multilingual adverse media highlights associations with corruption, sanctions violations, illicit trade, or political exposure. These insights help logistics teams avoid high-risk entities and maintain alignment with AML, export-control, and supply-chain compliance expectations.

Credit & Trade Risk Assessment

Independent credit scoring, payment-behaviour data, and financial diagnostics reveal whether partners can meet delivery commitments and maintain service levels. These insights help logistics firms avoid financially distressed carriers or suppliers, preventing operational breakdowns, delays, or sudden capacity shortfalls in complex freight networks.

Corporate Linkage & Ownership Mapping

Ownership transparency is essential when software, data, or infrastructure are involved. Cedar Rose maps indirect ownership networks, cross-border holding structures, and hidden controlling interests that may affect governance, data residency, intellectual-property rights, or regulatory exposure in strategic technology relationships.

Monitoring & Alerts

Continuous monitoring identifies changes in sanctions status, ownership, leadership, financial health, or legal standing across active suppliers and partners. Automated alerts allow logistics teams to intervene early when risk indicators emerge, supporting compliant, interruption-free operations and protecting long-term performance.

MEA Regional Expertise

Extensive coverage across the Middle East, Africa, and frontier markets provides reliable intelligence in regions where records may be inconsistent or inaccessible. Multilingual analysts and in-market research networks validate key information, helping logistics operators navigate high-risk trade routes and complex operational environments.

API & Portal Delivery

Real-time data delivery integrates verification, sanctions checks, credit insights, ownership mapping, and monitoring alerts into ERP systems, procurement tools, WMS/TMS platforms, and AI-driven engines. This automation accelerates onboarding, enhances visibility, and maintains compliance without slowing shipping operations.

Enhanced Integrity Due Diligence

Enhanced investigations reveal reputational risks, governance issues, legal exposure, and hidden ownership challenges that automated checks cannot detect. Using multilingual research and regional intelligence, Cedar Rose uncovers deeper insights needed for sensitive routes, high-value shipments, or partners operating in opaque jurisdictions.

Due Diligence Risk Score

A unified risk rating consolidates legal, financial, compliance, ownership, and reputational indicators into a single comparable score. This helps logistics teams benchmark partner risk, prioritise reviews, and apply consistent standards across high-volume carrier networks, subcontractor ecosystems, and regional supply-chain operations.

Don’t Let Unreliable Data Derail Your Growth!

Incomplete unreliable data and limited risk visibility don't just slow your company down; they actively sabotage its growth. Without comprehensive standardised, reliable quality data, you expose your business to unnecessary risks which complicate your ability to analyse the market landscape, and develop effective strategies.

Worse yet, compliance missteps, especially in new markets, can lead to costly fines that stifle your growth and tarnish your reputation. All this is also compounded by slow, manual processes that leave you scrambling to keep up, ultimately costing you deals, partnerships, and valuable time.

The thing is, high growth often means high-risk exposure, and the only way to navigate risk is through data. When harnessed correctly, data serves as your north star, guiding you through the maze of growth.
