Summary/Abstract: This article aims to highlight the role of trust in the functioning of business and to identify the key factors affecting consumer confidence in the company. The results show that quality of products and services as well as transparent and honest business practices are the most important dimension of corporate reputation. These are factors inherent in the trust. Poles generally consider that one should not trust business partners, although the image of a trustworthy company can significantly reduce the negative impact of bad information about the company. Relations based on trust are becoming increasingly popular in Poland.
