The reality facing today’s Finance leaders

Freight is no longer a stable, operational cost, it's become a material financial risk. Finance teams are under growing pressure to:

Explain sudden freight cost increases and build credible forecasts

Provide clear data-driven answers to boards and investors

Protect margin and cash flow in uncertain trade environments

Yet freight data is often fragmented, lagging, or anecdotal, making it difficult to separate market-driven change from internal inefficiencies.

 

This is where Xeneta provides clarity.
