Invoice Payment Practices

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

Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Our standard payment terms are generally 30 days from the date of invoice, which we request from all suppliers. We work with suppliers in a flexible and collaborative manner, taking into account the size, scope, and nature of their business. Where appropriate, we may agree alternative arrangements to suit specific circumstances, but our aim is to maintain consistent 30-day payment terms wherever possible.

Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?
