N/A

Maximum contractual payment period agreed

90 days

Radley + Co places orders based on proto type and samples. These become payable on the outcome of future orders. Therefore settlement of samples and proto invoices varies and can be longer than the normal 90 day trading terms.

Any other information about payment terms

Radley + Co's overseas suppliers terms are effective from shipment date, as orders are subject to long lead times.

Dispute resolution process

Disputes are resolved by negotiation involving the relevant parties - accounts payable, credit control departments, procurement and sales teams.
