Invoice Payment Practices

This information is as reported by the business, and responses are in their own words.

Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Standard payment terms are 45 days after the end of the month in which the supplier raises the invoice. We operate a single weekly payment run, and payments that have fallen due are picked up on the next payment run. Invoices that are in dispute or under query are not paid. By running a single weekly payment run, invoices may be paid shortly after the due date per the invoice, however this is considered to be on-time in the statistics reported. Invoices paid by direct debit collections to our suppliers are considered to have been paid on-time. Invoices raised by our customers for over-rider and similar deductions are paid by deduction from other invoices due to Froneri. These invoices are considered to have been immediately paid on time. If suppliers offer discounts for early payment, then payment may be made early in order to meet the criteria for receiving the discount. Froneri Ice Cream UK Limited is part of the Froneri Group. Froneri Group standard intra-group payment terms are 23 days after the end of the month in which the supplier raises the invoice.
