Foodstuffs Trade Terms
Foodstuffs have co-ordinated a single approach to the
management, negotiation and confirmation of National Trade Terms.
This activity is centrally co-ordinated through Foodstuffs Own
Brands Ltd on behalf of the wider Foodstuffs' Group.
The Trade Terms process is underpinned by a philosophy of equity
and transparency in the trading relationship. Terms of Trade should
encourage Foodstuffs to operate in the most effective and efficient
manner that results in a mutually beneficial ongoing trading
relationship.
The process commences with the completion of the standard
Foodstuffs Confirmation
of Supply Terms document which seeks full disclosure
of both fixed Terms of Trade and variable Promotional Trade Spend.
Additionally, the document requests some key assurances for the
future.
Once the document is completed, depending on whether it is a
branded Retail or General Merchandise product, it should be sent to
either the Foodstuffs Own Brands Ltd (FOBL) Commercial Manager or
National General Merchandise Manager who will work with you to
finalise the Terms of Trade.
