Morrisons to continue making immediate payments to small suppliers until January
Morrisons has said it will continue to make immediate payments to its smaller suppliers until the end of January as it looks to help them through the challenges of the coronavirus pandemic.
The supermarket has been making immediate payments to small foodmakers and farmers since March.
Morrisons is also extending the 5% discount that its farmers receive on their grocery shop as a thank you for their efforts in feeding the nation.
David Potts, chief executive of Morrisons, said: “Suppliers and farmers have told us they face ongoing pressure and we want to be there for them during this challenging period. We highly value the continued and consistent efforts of British farmers and small suppliers and want to say thank you and extend support where we can.”
