Xeneta has acquired maritime data company eeSea, expanding its ability to help shippers manage freight contracts and suppliers more effectively.
The deal brings eeSea’s schedule, transit time, and carrier reliability data into Xeneta’s existing freight rate platform. The combined dataset will allow shippers to evaluate carriers not only on cost but also on service performance.
Global supply chains continue to face challenges from trade tariffs, geopolitical tensions, and shifting carrier strategies such as blank sailings and congestion. By integrating eeSea’s data, Xeneta aims to give procurement teams better tools to balance cost with delivery reliability.
“This is a key milestone for Xeneta,” said Patrik Berglund, CEO of Xeneta. “Together with eeSea, we can offer customers more actionable intelligence to control freight spend and improve delivery performance.”
Simon Sundboell, founder and CEO of eeSea, said the partnership strengthens efforts to bring greater transparency to ocean freight. “A true partnership between carriers and cargo owners depends not only on freight rates, but also on operational performance,” he said.
