30 days for all SME's is our standard approach for new Suppliers. Our standard terms are 30 days. By exception we may negotiate up to 60 days with some large Suppliers.

Maximum contractual payment period agreed
60 days
We used 60 days for our Suppliers for Contractors until recently. These are now on 45 day terms. This is because contractors are our largest volume of invoices. A small amount of other large value Suppliers are also on 60 days where this impacts our cashflow,
