One platform for every freight procurement need

Freight Marketplace connects shippers, logistics service providers and carriers in one ecosystem to source capacity faster, make smarter procurement decisions and reduce freight costs.

THE CHALLENGE

Secure capacity, control costs and stay ahead of market change.

  • Spreadsheets, emails and phone calls create delays and unnecessary admin
  • Limited rate transparency makes benchmarking and tender timing harder
  • Slow processes reduce agility in fast-changing markets
  • Disconnected systems overload teams and drain productivity
  • Limited carrier and sustainability insights weaken decision-making
  • Volatility and disruptions increase procurement risk and cost exposure
  • Source capacity across all transport modes — including road, ocean, air and rail — while managing strategic, tactical and spot procurement in one connected platform.
  • Use real market intelligence and forecasting to make better-timed decisions, automate repetitive workflows to reduce manual effort and collaborate more easily with a global network of verified carriers.

THE SOLUTION
