In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Perrys standard payment terms state that payment of third party invoices for goods and services will be made by the end of the month following the month in which a properly due, correct, and complete invoice was received. Other terms may apply where agreed in writing by a duly authorised representative.
Dispute resolution
Perrys are committed to acting with integrity and therefore endeavour to resolve all disputes in a fair and timely manner. Disputes are resolved by discussion and agreement between the supplier’s main contact and Perrys accounts payable team together with the main Perrys contact who typically will have ordered the goods and services.

What a 18-day cycle ties up
A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 18-day vs a 3-day payment cycle.
Late Payment Act. The Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 lets a supplier charge statutory interest and fixed compensation on invoices paid past agreed terms. Work out what a late invoice is worth → Whether it applies depends on your contract — check with an adviser.

What is a Payment Practices Report?
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
How often is this data updated?
Is this official government data?
How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.
The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
