Suppliers naturally want to ensure they’ll get paid. But cutting ties with a retailer or tightening up payment terms too early or too tightly comes with its own downside. Cantalupo noted that suppliers want to keep shipping merchandise as long as a retailer is not a short-term credit risk in their analysis.
