Dispute Resolution Process

"Adnams plc takes its commercial responsibilities seriously and endeavours to build long term partnerships with suppliers. We aim to treat our suppliers in the same way as we in turn like to be treated by our customers. We therefore strive to resolve invoice queries and disputes within the Standard Payment Period, but where this is not possible will seek to resolve the dispute and make the payment as soon as a resolution has been achieved. Disputes will be handled by the relevant employee within Adnams plc responsible for the purchase/order in accordance with any specific agreements that maybe in place. If a dispute cannot be resolved it will be escalated to our Commercial Director for consideration. Supplier enquiries regarding payments can be directed to the dedicated accounts payable email address or telephone line which is monitored daily. In addition, Adnams plc will provide suppliers with reasonable notice of commercial delists giving sufficient time to have the decision reviewed. "
