Solutions for Offline Brand Protection Teams
Every Seizure Is a Window Into
a Larger Physical Network.
Human Expertise. Amplified.
Customs holds a shipment. Your field team seizes product from a warehouse. A test purchase arrives from an address that appears in three different investigations. Each event looks standalone — because the people, locations, suppliers, and distributors behind them are held in different systems across different teams. Hubstream connects them. So the field report, the seizure record, the distributor file, and the prior investigation become one picture of the physical network behind counterfeit products.

Sound Familiar?
Every offline brand protection team has had these conversations
From Disconnected Field Incidents
to the Distribution Network Behind Them
Each participant holds a different part of the investigation. Hubstream connects them — so the warehouse, the distributor, the shipper, and the prior seizures become one picture.
Fragmented Across
Every Team and System
Related incidents treated as separate — the distribution network stays invisible
A Connected View of the
Physical Distribution Network
What Changes After Hubstream
Four outcomes for offline brand protection teams — that disconnected field systems, legal files, and regional spreadsheets can't deliver.
Connect Related Seizures
and Incidents
Two seizures from the same source shouldn't look like two separate problems.
Customs seizures, field investigations, and test-purchase results held in separate systems mean related incidents are never connected. Hubstream links them — by shared subjects, locations, products, routes, distributors, or contact details — so the pattern becomes visible before the third seizure happens.
- Identify shared subjects, locations, or products across incidents
- Connect seizures to prior investigations automatically
- Surface repeat suppliers, distributors, and shipping routes
Reveal the Physical
Distribution Network
The warehouse is a node. The network is the investigation.
Counterfeit product reaches markets through people, businesses, warehouses, shipping routes, and distributors — many of whom appear in multiple investigations without anyone knowing it. Hubstream maps those connections, making the supply chain visible as a network rather than a sequence of isolated incidents.
- Map manufacturers, distributors, warehouses, and retailers as connected entities
- Identify shared logistics routes and fulfilment infrastructure
- Understand how products, people, and businesses connect across investigations
Coordinate Across Regions
and Partners
What your EU team knows, your APAC team should too.
Offline brand protection involves many participants — regional teams, outside counsel, investigators, customs contacts, law enforcement — each holding different parts of the same investigation. Hubstream preserves investigation history and makes relevant intelligence available to authorised participants, without replacing the systems they already use.
- Preserve intelligence across team and regional boundaries
- Provide controlled access to relevant investigation records for outside counsel and partners
- Ensure prior seizures and enforcement actions are visible to the full team
Build Stronger
Evidence Packages
An evidence package assembled from memory is a liability.
Enforcement actions and prosecutions require well-organised, traceable evidence — field reports, photographs, product samples, chain-of-custody records, prior actions, and relationship documentation. Hubstream brings all of it into a structured investigation record, so the evidence package is built from a connected record, not assembled from scattered folders at the last minute.
- Organise reports, photographs, and product evidence within one investigation record
- Maintain relationship documentation for enforcement and prosecution
- Connect prior actions and outcomes to current investigation context
