Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
The business has long standing and established relationships with its key suppliers, with agreed payment terms in place. Payment terms reflect standard industry practice and may vary depending on the timing of sales to end customers for equipment held in stock. Payments are made via agreed methods and timings understood and accepted by suppliers. Payments to other suppliers are normally made as close as possible to the relevant due dates, subject to the timing of scheduled payment runs, which take place at fixed points during the month.
- Dispute resolution process
Any invoice issues may be identified as potential disputes either by the finance team during invoice processing or by the individual responsible for placing and approving the order. Once identified, the issue is reviewed internally with the relevant department and discussed with the supplier where necessary. Undisputed amounts are expected to be paid in line with agreed terms, and the business aims to resolve disputes promptly to enable settlement of the remaining balance.

This is a company-submitted statutory disclosure, not a credit rating. BritDB preserves the reporting period and links the report only through the Companies House number supplied by the official service. Percentages describe payments made during that period and may change in later reports.

Demonstrated progress
Our business is the sale and repair of agricultural machinery and our premium supplier base has its own due diligence processes and include brands such as John Deere, Kuhn and Ifor Williams. As part of our initiative to identify and mitigate risk, we pay close attention to those potential groups, such as foreign workers, and those in low remuneration areas such as cleaning staff etc and regularly have dialogue with them to ensure they have an open platform to discuss their work with the managers
A registry entry records what the organisation declared in its statement. It is not an independent audit. Group statements can cover several companies; BritDB preserves each exact source-supplied company-number link and excludes approver names and email addresses.

This is a candidate association, not an official Companies House link. The ICO file supplies no company number. The organisation name and postcode uniquely matched this company in the current snapshot. BritDB excludes all DPO contact fields and does not publish unmatched personal entries.

PSC records are company-filed public-register information. When the exact same displayed individual name occurs at multiple companies, BritDB offers a non-indexed cross-reference page. It is a name match only, not proof that the records describe the same person. Service addresses and partial dates of birth are deliberately omitted.
08 Charity register
Charity Commission links
No exact company-number link in this snapshot
The Charity Commission extract did not explicitly associate this Companies House number with a charity. BritDB does not use a name-only match to fill the gap.
This company-level check covers the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Links are accepted only when the official extract supplies this exact company registration number. Scottish charities now have separate OSCR profiles, but OSCR’s bulk fields do not provide a Companies House number, so BritDB does not infer a company link.
09 Northern Ireland charity register
CCNI exact company links
No unambiguous company-number link found
The CCNI source number did not resolve uniquely to this Companies House record. BritDB did not use a name or address match.
CCNI publishes company numbers without a jurisdiction prefix. BritDB links only when the plausible padded UK and NI candidates resolve to exactly one Companies House company.
10 Sanctions screening
UK Sanctions List
No exact business-registration-number link found
The imported UK Sanctions List did not supply this Companies House number as a UK-linked business identifier. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
No exact link is not sanctions clearance. UK restrictions can apply through ownership or control even where an entity is not separately named. Always use the current official list and obtain appropriate advice for a legally significant decision.
11 Public procurement
Find a Tender links
These links use only the GB-COH identifier supplied in the procurement record. A company may have other public-sector work that is absent, older, below publication thresholds or published without a Companies House identifier.
12 Environmental register
Environment Agency waste registrations
No exact company-number registration linked
The licensed Environment Agency subset did not contain this exact Companies House number. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
This is a privacy-reduced, exact-company subset. The full official register also includes sole traders and applicants without a matching Companies House number. Check the current Environment Agency register before relying on registration status.
