Standard Payment Terms
Mowi Scotland Ltd has standard payment terms of 30 days from invoice date. This applies to the vast majority of suppliers and covers both operational expenditure and capital expenditure.
Mowi Scotland Ltd has agreed shorter payments terms under the following circumstances:
• New suppliers
• Local small suppliers
• Where a capital project has been negotiated to enable competitive pricing
• Specific item purchases
There were no changes to the standard payment terms during the reporting period - Dispute resolution process
A dispute on payment would arise if the purchased item did not meet the standards required, arrived damaged or was not fit for purpose. The requisitioner would attempt to resolve the dispute with the supplier and may withhold some / all of the payment due – the supplier would be informed by phone. The requisitioner would report any unresolved dispute and the reason to their line manager in the first instance who would, in turn, make a recommendation to the Finance Director or Managing Director.
Decisions on withholding payments are made between the Finance Director and the Managing Director.

Reported risks and mitigations
- Risk: Suppliers of our ingredients from around the globe.
- Area: Within your supply chains
- Tier: Tier 1 suppliers
- Group: Women Migrants Refugees Children
- Mitigation: All our suppliers are required to sign up to our Suppliers Code of Conduct and confirm their compliance with the ETI Base Code, via a risk assessment where we request a SEDEX number. We use this data to evaluate risk. Part of that evaluation is to consider country of origin and whether or not it represents a higher risk of ethical malpractice. our assessment of this risk is supported by the use of various on-line tools such as European Rapid Alert system for food and feed (RASFF) and FSA.
- Risk: Agency labour suppliers of workers into processing plants.
- Area: Within your own operations
- Group: Women Migrants Refugees
- Mitigation: In addition to standard supplier checks, the requirement for ethical employment practices (including measures to prevent forced labour) is built into our SLA with our providers. We check and monitor licenses with the GLAA and undertake monthly audits to ensure pre-employment checks, bank account and address checks, and that workers and jobseekers are not charged. Also, the risk of hidden labour exploitation is in inductions for all new workers, who are encouraged to report any signs they see.
- Risk: Supply chain (packaging etc)
- Mitigation: All our suppliers are required to sign up to our Suppliers Code of Conduct and confirm their compliance with the Ethical Trade Initiative (ETI) Base Code, via a risk assessment where we request a SEDEX number. Any issues would be highlighted and dealt with upon the review of the completed risk assessment. Suppliers who were unable to meet our requirements would be prevented from supplying Mowi.

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
No exact GB-COH link in this snapshot
Find a Tender did not explicitly identify this Companies House number in a procurement party. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
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.
