Cash Discounts

Q-4 Cash Discounts

What cash discounts do you offer your customers?  We currently offer 1%, 10, net 30.  I believe this is very generous in today's environment and I would like to know what others in the medical device manufacturing industry are doing.

Thanks,

Anonymous

 

Response:

We are in the medical device industry but on the service side.  We do not offer discounted terms.  Often some of the larger device manufacturers will request these as a general negotiation point but have always relented.

Response:

In response to the cash discount question, we are a medical device service provider and do not offer any cash discounts.
