For many products pre-agreed discounts are already in place for collections or deliveries from suppliers. Others are negotiated individually and on a daily basis, especially the “commodity” type products. Members are encouraged to phone the office with their requirements and we will negotiate terms and place the business with the supplier. A list of all Suppliers can be accessed in the members’ area of the website; together with product and technical information; newsletters and helpful links to associated organisations.

 

Suppliers invoices are sent to Samco & Shrim and checked against orders. Copies of invoices are collated and sent to members with their Samco and Shrim invoice/statement mid-month. Payment from members is by direct debit on 24th of each month. Suppliers are paid by BACS by the last working day of the month.

 

Several members have volunteered farm performance statistics and accounts, to demonstrate the benefits and advantages of becoming a member of Samco & Shrim. Please contact Simon Claydon on 01279 656523 if you would like this information or if you would like to carry out benchmarking to see your potential on farm savings
