Standard payment terms
In line with industry practice, manufacturers insist upon direct access to our bank accounts and they take funds to pay for both vehicles and parts when they fall due. Other suppliers are normally paid in accordance with their terms of trading. Greenhous’s standard terms of trading are 30 days end of month following the month in which the invoice is received. We pay non-vehicle supplies within 30 days of the end of the month in which the invoice is received. The overwhelming majority of supply is from motor manufacturers. Greenhous deals on those manufacturers' standard terms which require payment by direct debit withdrawal from our account within 2-3 working days of invoice date in the vast majority of cases. Other suppliers’ payments are required within 2-3 working days of vehicle registration date on the sale. All vehicle suppliers are paid within 2-3 working days of due date as per standard manufacturers terms. Otherwise our standard trading terms are 30 days from end of the month the invoice is received.
