Haven Launched Private Freight Marketplace at TPM Long Beach

LONG BEACH, Calif., March 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Haven announced the launch of its Private Marketplace at the TPM Long Beach Conference on March 2nd. Haven empowers Shippers to easily search, compare, and reserve container slots across 10 of the world's leading ocean carriers at more than 1500 ports. Shippers can prioritize based on criteria such as arrival or departure times, frequency of sailings, transit times, and rates.

Haven offers ocean carriers an efficient marketplace to sell slot capacity. This enables them to decrease costs and increase workflow simplicity while maintaining a direct connection to their customer.

"Over the past year, we've met with representatives from nearly every major carrier and shipper to understand their challenges," said Matthew Tillman, Haven co-founder and CEO. "Our Private Marketplace is a critical first step in realizing their primary need for an agile yet predictable supply chain."

Traditional rate negotiations typically involve an extended chain of phone calls, faxes, and emails. Haven's Private Marketplace streamlines these workflows, connecting shippers and carriers on a truly neutral platform. In an era of global supply chains, it's increasingly important to react quickly to situations from port congestion to regional instability.

There is no upfront cost to participate, no software to install, and no subscription fee. Transactions remain private and data is never sold to third parties.
