Xeneta for procurement teams

Right now you negotiate with one hand behind your back — the only benchmarks you have come from the party you're negotiating against.

Xeneta gives Procurement teams real-time freight market intelligence to negotiate better contracts, challenge suppliers, and avoid buying freight with blind spots.

Procurement Masterclass

Negotiate with confidence. Optimise tenders. Own your spend.

A 45-minute platform masterclass for procurement teams who are tired of taking the carrier's word for it. See exactly how to turn neutral market data into sharper negotiations and lower freight spend.

1Build a watchlist. Zero in on the 20% of lanes driving 80% of your spend, and track rates, capacity, reliability and surcharges at a glance.
2Push back on suppliers. See real market rates carrier by carrier, test whether "the market rate" really is the market rate, and walk in with evidence.
3Find the money on the table. Benchmark your spend lane by lane and surface where to save before your next tender.
