N/A
Maximum contractual payment period agreed
75 days
Our payment terms typically range from 14 days through to 60 days, however, extended terms of 75 days from end of month have been negotiated with a small number of suppliers. Such extended terms were entered into on an arms’ length basis with mutual agreement by the suppliers.
Any other information about payment terms
As reported above under “payments due in the reporting period which have not been paid within the agreed period”, 78% of invoices were not paid within agreed terms, however, our analysis has confirmed that the majority of supplier invoices paid in the reporting period were paid within five working days of supplier terms. In many cases, this short delay is often linked to the timing of any particular weekly payment run.
The accounts payable system that is used across Johnsons Textile Services Limited does not allow us to record the date a supplier invoice is physically received. Instead, we record the actual invoice date and it is that which has been used as a proxy for the date of receipt. As a consequence, any delay in us receiving an invoice from a supplier will adversely affect the statistics reported above.
Dispute resolution process
We seek to resolve any issues in the first instance between the most relevant representatives of our company and the supplier. If the matter cannot be resolved it may then be escalated to senior members of both the supplier and ourselves. We are very proud to have built up longstanding relationships with a significant proportion of our suppliers and will always endeavour to work in a collaborative manner with them in order to resolve any disputes that may arise. Once resolved, we would aim to pay the supplier within the agreed contractual terms between us or, if the contractual due date has passed, at the next available opportunity.
