Dispute resolution process

Wilko finance team review supplier statement reconciliations to work through any disputes. These are reported to our buying and finance management teams with the aim of resolving payment queries as quickly as possible. Suppliers with disputes should contact the finance department by telephone on 01909 505505 or by post at: Finance Department, J K House, Roebuck Way, Manton Wood, Worksop, Notts, S80 3EG. Wilko precedent contracts for goods and services contain dispute resolution clauses. Where wilko contracts on supplier terms, wilko seeks to include dispute resolution clauses - and these are generally accepted as they are beneficial to both parties.
