Company principles

What we value and how we act

Every day, our teams make decisions that shape how the world’s freight moves. Building the ocean freight platform that global supply chains run on is both our responsibility and a big privilege. Our values guide how we work together and show up for the customers who run on Cargoo.

  • Trust

    We deliver on what we promise, and we stay truthful and transparent, especially when the news is hard. We value a diversity of opinion, because the best operating decisions come from people who see the same problem differently. When we get something wrong, we own it and learn from it. And we start from good intent, with each other and with our customers.

    1/5

  • Entrepreneurship

    We act like owners. We embrace initiative, take on problems before we are asked, and keep innovating on how a supply chain can run. We measure ourselves by the change we drive for customers and the impact it has on their business. And we inspire and uplift the people around us to do the same.

    2/5

  • Have fun

    We love the work, and it shows. We work hard and celebrate harder, stay dedicated to the craft, and bring our whole, genuine selves to it. Building something this ambitious should be energising, and we make sure it is.

    3/5

  • Collaboration

    We achieve together. We celebrate each other’s wins, respect each other’s time, and empower the team to move faster than any of us could alone. A connected platform is built by a connected team.

    4/5

  • Customer Centricity

    We put customers first, in every release and every decision. We go beyond what is expected, grow as our customers grow, and build relationships that last well beyond the first contract. Their supply chain is our responsibility, and we treat it that way.

People of Cargoo

Our teams

We're a team of freight operators, procurement and planning specialists, software engineers, AI architects and data engineers building the platform running the world's ocean freight.

Product

We turn the way ocean freight actually works into a single platform. Our engineers, designers, and product teams build the four pillars (Procure, Plan, Execute, Control) and the 28 modules beneath them, so you can finally manage the entire supply chain in one place end-to-end.

Business implementation

We turn strategy into how teams actually operate. Our implementation managers embed Cargoo into daily workflows across procurement, freight execution, and the control tower, driving the adoption and operational change with measurable business outcomes.

Network & integrations

Cargoo connects to the systems you already run and to the partners that physically move your freight. Our integrations team maintains live links to shippers, 98% of global shipping lines, customs systems, brokers, terminals, and the ERP, WMS, and BI tools on your side.

Customer success

Every supply chain runs differently, so we configure Cargoo to fit any. Our customer teams onboard you on the layer where the pain is sharpest. You keep your carriers, your partners, and your stack, and you run Cargoo with your own team, with CSA, or with a mix of both.
