Maximum contractual payment period agreed
1,136 days
Payment terms are set out in our contracts with suppliers and are typically in the range 30 to 60 days from receipt of a valid invoice. Under certain long-term contracts invoices are received years in advance of due date. This increases the maximum contractual payment period.
There are two payment runs per week, therefore some suppliers may receive payment either 1 or 2 working days before or after the stated due date.
