Since our founding in 2000 in Leipzig, Germany, we at Unite have grown to become a leading provider of B2B e-commerce solutions across 12 European markets. Our headquarters, recently expanded to a new state-of-the-art facility in the heart of Leipzig, reflects our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and excellence in workspace dynamics.
Our core mission is to transform B2B commerce by connecting buyers and sellers via a scalable digital platform that facilitates effortless sourcing, buying, selling, transacting, and collaborating. We offer a suite of solutions including the Spotmarket, Procurement Portal (formerly Mercateo), and Financial Services, supported by a smart network hub. This infrastructure supports business continuity and supply chain resilience while promoting fair competition, trusted partnerships, and European data sovereignty.
Built upon Mercateo’s strong foundation and expertise in spot-buying dating back to 2000, Unite leverages its history to create a robust ecosystem linking buyers, suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, technology partners, and networks. We aim to add and share value for better business outcomes and a better world.
Our choice of Leipzig as our central hub is strategic, benefiting from the city’s dynamic start-up scene, excellent universities and research institutions, and Europe’s central location, making it ideal for our ongoing growth plans. Our expansion and investment in Leipzig not only enhance business conditions locally but also exemplify our dedication to sustainable economic development.
At Unite, we believe in fostering strong, lasting partnerships and contributing positively to the economic and digital development of the regions we operate in, starting with Leipzig. Our platform is designed to empower procurement teams to consolidate purchases, manage tail spend efficiently, and onboard new suppliers seamlessly without overhead, revolutionizing how businesses connect and transact across Europe.
