Sectors

Wholesalers are a vital link in the UK supply chain – moving goods efficiently between manufacturers, retailers, and end users. But with high-volume orders, tight margins, and supplier obligations to manage, one recurring challenge threatens it all: late payments.

Delayed customer payments can seriously disrupt your ability to replenish stock, pay suppliers, and meet day-to-day costs. In a fast-moving sector like wholesale, poor cash flow doesn’t just slow you down, it puts your entire operation at risk.

As your business grows, managing credit terms and chasing payments becomes increasingly complex. Many wholesalers lack the time or resources to follow up consistently, spot early warning signs, or maintain firm but professional communication with customers. Instead, credit control often becomes reactive—addressed only when problems have already taken root.

That’s where outsourced credit control makes a real difference.

At Franklin James Credit Management, we offer specialist credit control services tailored to the wholesale industry. We help you get paid faster, reduce debtor days, and improve cash flow, all while protecting your customer relationships and brand reputation.

We act as an extension of your accounts team, providing clear, consistent follow-ups and early intervention. Our polite yet firm approach encourages prompt payment without damaging customer trust. You’ll gain better visibility of your debtor book and peace of mind that the right conversations are happening at the right time.

Outsourced credit control isn’t just about collecting what you’re owed, it’s about securing your cash flow, supporting your supply chain, and giving your business the financial stability to grow.
