Supplier payment terms

Kalmar has a standard payment term policy for all suppliers of direct and indirect goods and services.

For suppliers of direct material: Europe and APAC, 90 Days; North America, 75 Days

For suppliers of indirect goods and services: 45 Days

Standard payment terms enable Kalmar to optimise the payment process, resulting in more accurate and timely payments for suppliers. We expect our suppliers, as our valued partners, to comply with the standard. Failure to do so will result in delayed payments.
