Huhtamaki Flexible Packaging Europe cuts procurement from 6–12 months to 6 months with Xeneta

Huhtamaki Flexible Packaging Europe, a manufacturer with a global shipping operation, faced a lengthy and complex ocean freight procurement process. They sought to move away from disparate market indices to gain more accurate intelligence for negotiating with suppliers and relied on Xeneta's ocean freight market analytics service to address this challenge.

By implementing Xeneta's solution, Huhtamaki was able to radically streamline its procurement, cutting the process time from up to a year down to just half a year. Using Xeneta's data to monitor price trends and validate market rates, they significantly reduced their number of suppliers and built strategic, trusted partnerships. The team now confidently agrees to long-term contracts and budgets, having standardized their entire procurement process on intelligence from Xeneta.
