In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Generally speaking, imported finished goods are paid for on delivery at the port, raw materials are on 60 day terms, processing suppliers are on 3 working day terms, overheads are generally on 30 day terms. Rent and rate suppliers are payable in advance on an agreed date.
Dispute resolution
The Purchase Ledger department ensures good relationships are kept with suppliers. Any complaints or concerns suppliers have are referred to the Purchase Ledger department who will liaise with the supplier via email/ telephone to come to a mutual agreement. Any complaints or concerns are usually actioned the same day, or worst case scenario 48 hours, and aim to be resolved as soon as possible.

How UK payment reporting works
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).
