Standard payment terms
We have a range of payment terms that vary by supplier, these range from immediate to 90 days following invoice date. We do not have daily payment runs but we are willing to accept immediate payment terms and so these suppliers on immediate terms are paid on the first available payment run once their invoices have gone through the relevant approval process. Suppliers with immediate terms or less than our standard terms will generally be paid late but they are on these payment terms to ensure they are paid at the earliest opportunity.
Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?

The Company is committed to dealing with its suppliers in a fair, honest and professional manner. We seek to resolve queries as quickly as possible to everyone's satisfaction prior to payment being made. It is initially established whether an invoice has been received. If this is not the case, a copy invoice is requested and sent for the relevant approval process. In the event that a dispute cannot be resolved by our Accounts team, it would be escalated in the first instance to the relevant Head of Department to seek a resolution.

Howden Joinery Corporate Services Limited is a UK-registered company forming part of the Howdens Joinery group, the trade kitchen and joinery supplier known for its nationwide depot network and UK-manufactured cabinets. Its registered business activity is described as other business support service activities not elsewhere classified, indicating it provides internal administrative or corporate support functions within the wider group rather than trading directly with customers. The group itself sells kitchens, bedrooms, worktops, appliances and joinery products to the trade from local stock through hundreds of depots, alongside design and survey services. This entity should be understood as a corporate services vehicle supporting group operations, not as the customer-facing retail or manufacturing business.
