Standard payment terms

We have suppliers with different agreed payments terms, some shorter, some longer, and we abide by all payment terms based on the timely submission of satisfactory invoices. Our standard terms are end of month following the month of invoice. This means that payment will be made, by BACs, on the last Friday of the month, following the month in which the invoice is received. As a result of this review we are committed to making further improvements particularly given systems integrations post acquisition in January 2017 had an impact.
