You can't control commodity prices. You can control freight.
You need a partner that does more than just audit every invoice against contracted rates. Network complexity, seasonal spikes, and inbound material is critical to food and beverage companies. Loop provides a comprehensive audit, from data to invoices to carrier performance.
USE CASES
You deserve more from your freight audit partner.
Loop introduces a better way to spend your time. Automate time-consuming back-office tasks, like invoice auditing and dispture resolution, and elevate your value by using trustworth data to drive high-impact initiatives.
Audit inbound freight
Time to stop auditing only outbound freight costs. Inbound freight gets billed without a reliable shipment record. Loop links the invoice to the PO and delivery documents so you can verify what arrived before you pay.
Analyze complex networks
Multiple carriers, suppliers and plants create fragmented cost data, and shipment, invoice and GL records rarely share the same identifiers. Loop connects them automatically, so you can allocate spend and act on exceptions instead of rekeying.
Be ready for seasonal spikes
Most freight cost is allocated on assumption rather than evidence, so no one can say which site or product actually carried it. Loop connects freight to the plants and cost centers it serves, so your landed cost rests on data you can defend.
Understand SKU landed cost
Demand swings move capacity requirements more than 50% within weeks, and the data to manage it arrives from hundreds of carrier sources. Loop audits every invoice the same way whatever the volume, so the work doesn't grow with the season.
CUSTOMERS

Parcel invoice data ready for accounting
A food distributor needed a more consistent way to prepare parcel invoice data for accounting. Loop consolidated charges by invoice and GL code, generated accounting-ready files, and delivered them to the team. A separate review workflow routed missing GL codes for correction, streamlining the handoff between transportation and AP while keeping exceptions visible.
Shipment growth without headcount
A fast-growing beverage company needed to support growth without a proportional increase in headcount. Loop gave the team visibility into overcharges, accessorial trends, missing shipment documents and carrier invoice accuracy across truckload and LTL freight. With custom dashboards and faster access to invoice data, the team could benchmark carriers, address billing issues and bring evidence into carrier reviews while keeping manual work in check.
Granular GL coding unlocks freight cost by product & SKU
A consumer-products company needed a clearer view of freight costs by product. Loop allocated transportation costs to individual orders and SKU types and delivered weekly finance-ready reporting, giving the team more granular cost visibility to inform pricing and shipping-origin decisions.
The real costs of inbound freight
A multi-plant protein manufacturer needed better visibility into inbound freight and more consistent cost allocation across plants, suppliers, and carriers. Loop linked invoices, bills of lading, and proof-of-delivery documents to shipments, validated supplier PO numbers, and used configurable lookup tables to assign GL codes and cost centers. This helped the team connect inbound freight to purchasing records, flag invalid PO numbers before payment, and replace extensive manual cost mapping with standardized coding.
