Good Business Pays is calling on SMEs across the UK to join its movement to end late and slow payments
About us
The Good Business Pays campaign launched on the 14th March 2020 to encourage the UK's largest companies to fast track payments to small suppliers, helping them bounce back from the COVID-19 pandemic and injecting vital capital into the economy. Small businesses are a growth engine for the UK economy, employing 61% of the private sector workforce (16.8 million) and generating 52% of turnover. Yet 50,000 go out of business each year due to cash flow problems. Developed initially with the Federation of Small Businesses, the Good Business Pays campaign has been launched with support from the country’s other leading business groups including the CBI, Make UK, BCC, IoD and the Creative Industries Federation. Between them, these groups represent hundreds of thousands of UK businesses.

Here are the Good Business Pays Wait Watchers numbers for September 2024! . Every month, Good Business Pays tracks the payment practices and performance daily of every company that reports its numbers. We then recognise those that pay fast, as well as those that pay late or take a long time to pay suppliers in our #waitwatchers programme. So here are the reported results from the slowest and fastest payers in the past four weeks, based on their own submissions to the Department for Business and Trade. (Please note we exclude staffing companies who generally all pay fast and also Legal Firms that work within regulations that set certain payment terms that appear very slow). All results below are their average time to pay (all suppliers): The fast were: Giant Group = 4 days Trailfinders = 10 days Harrods Aviation Limited = 11 days Mastercard = 11 days GEODIS = 12 days Rathbones Group Plc = 12 days Royal Academy of Arts = 13 days Ian Mosey Group = 13 days Europe Arab Bank = 14 days Lex Leisure = 14 days Reed & Mackay = 14 days WeightWatchers = 15 days Dundee Airport = 15 days Highlands and Islands Airports Ltd = 16 days The slow or late were: THG Nutrition = 111 days Bibendum Off Trade = 105 days OneAdvanced Computer Software Company = 103 days GKN Aerospace = 101 days Acton Gardens Llp = 90 days OneSubsea Operations = 81 days Altrad Babcock = 80 days Breyer Group = 90% invoices paid late LIQUID TELECOMMUNICATIONS LIMITED = 88% invoices paid late Holchem Laboratories = 82% invoices paid late Checkout.com = 81% invoices paid late Charlie Bigham's | B Corp = 80% invoices paid late #paydontdelay #waitwatchers #cashflow #latepayment #latepayments #payments #smes #smallbusiness
