The credit infrastructure global trade has been waiting for.

SME shippers move trillions of dollars of cargo every year and can't get financing. Not because they're bad credits — because banks can't see their data. Rhofin sits inside the logistics stack, turning shipment and performance data into real-time credit decisions. Built by people who have structured credit at the world's largest banks, run global supply chain infrastructure, and scaled fintech across three continents — we've seen exactly why this hasn't been built before, and exactly how to build it.
