Supply of Goods Agreements
Mitigate your risk potential and create bespoke supply of goods agreements that work for your business.
When standard terms and conditions on their own are not enough, you need to be confident that your supply of goods agreements are comprehensive, protect your business and comply with all relevant statutes and regulations. Your business relationships, and your business itself, may depend on it. Achieve peace of mind with our commercial solicitors’ knowledge, expertise and support.
Certainty |
Be on the same page as your suppliers/customers by agreeing written terms to govern your relationship. Not only will this simplify your business relationships, but it will reduce the risk of disputes at a later date.
Mitigate risk |
A comprehensive supply of goods agreement will include enforceable, compliant limitations of liability, security for payment and recourses for breach of contract, each of which protects your business and encourages open dialogue with your suppliers/customers.
Legal compliance |
Having legal support and expertise during the drafting process will ensure that your contracts are fully compliant with the various statutes and regulations which apply to the supply of goods.
Stay ahead of the competition |
Staying abreast of legal updates and current market practice allows your business to remain competitive and puts you ahead of the competition. Counterparties will value your professional approach and understanding of the market.
Supply continuity |
Contractual provisions setting out the duration of a supply relationship, termination rights, and protection against unforeseen circumstances such as the COVID-19 pandemic, all help provide supply continuity – a crucial issue for any supplier or customer.
Flexibility of terms |
Supply of goods agreements enable standard terms of business to be varied and amended on an ad hoc basis for specific projects or customers, without needing to amend the standard terms themselves. Show your top customers their value to your business by offering them enhanced terms without the administrative burden and risk of having different standard terms of business in place.
