What they tell their suppliers
In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
The company’s standard payment terms are 30 days from the date of invoice. These terms apply as the default for supplier payments, although alternative terms may be agreed where commercially appropriate. As a retailer bound by the Groceries Supply Code of Practice (GSCOP), the company operates on a principle of fair dealing and acts in good faith with all suppliers.

Suppliers are asked to provide any missing or corrected information promptly so that matters can be resolved without unnecessary delay.

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 6,185 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
