Precision and Control: Bridgestone’s Digital Trade Finance Transformation

A Unified Vision for Trade Finance Excellence
Bridgestone, a global leader in premium tyres and sustainable mobility solutions, set out to modernize its complex trade finance operations across the EMEA region. Despite its world-class operations, trade finance activities were managed through fragmented processes, scattered data, and manual oversight – slowing coordination and creating compliance risks in an increasingly regulated environment.
At the same time, Mitigram saw an opportunity to bring its Manager platform’s transaction management capabilities to an industry heavyweight, helping Bridgestone gain full control over its global instruments. Together, the teams shared a clear goal: to eliminate inefficiency through structured, data-driven workflows and centralized transparency.
The collaboration resulted in a streamlined, secure, and highly configurable trade finance environment – one that empowers teams across regions, enhances visibility, and ensures governance at every stage of the transaction lifecycle.
The Turning Point: From Fragmentation to Insight
By implementing Mitigram Manager, Bridgestone connected every aspect of its trade finance lifecycle, from issuance to expiry, within a single transparent system. Automated alerts, unified data views, and integrated policy enforcement replaced the patchwork of manual tracking and email-based coordination.
