The trend for 2 SISTERS POULTRY LIMITED over the past 3 periods has been an increase in the average time taken to pay invoices, with a corresponding increase in the percentage of invoices paid later than 60 days. This trend could potentially lead to strained relationships with suppliers and impact the company's reputation.
There has been some volatility in the average time to pay and the percentage of invoices paid within 30 days, but the biggest change has been in the percentage of invoices paid later than 60 days. This indicates a potential lack of consistency in payment practices and could be a cause for concern for suppliers.
