At Eric Group, we believe that fair payment is essential to building a sustainable, responsible and successful business. 

Our decision to apply for an award under the Fair Payment Code reflects our commitment to treating suppliers fairly, maintaining strong business relationships and recognising the important role that timely payment plays in the wider business community.

We understand that every supplier has their own business to run, with bills to pay and staff to support. Late payments can make things difficult, especially for smaller businesses, where cash flow is so important.

We rely on our suppliers and the services they provide to help us deliver our work, so we believe it’s only right that they’re paid fairly and on time. Paying promptly helps them manage their costs, while also building trust and maintaining strong working relationships. We value the people and businesses we work with and believe that paying them on time is simply the right way to do business.

Achieving Gold status is a real achievement for Eric Group, and one we’re genuinely proud of. It recognises our commitment to fair payment and reflects the standards we want to uphold as a business.
