To meet the demand for a white-labelled version of the FreightExchange (FE) platform, users can customise the FreightExchange functionalities to appear as their own branded platform. This includes using a customer-specific URL and incorporating their customer's logo and color scheme across the platform. 

Additionally, users can manage multiple sub-accounts under their main account, enhancing the ability to maintain brand consistency while utilising FE's robust features. This setup allows for a seamless integration of FE's capabilities with the user's brand identity.
