LEGAL WEBINAR

Presented by

Lucy Pringle, partner at Keystone Law and Associate Member of the BCMPA. Lucy specialises in manufacturing, co-packing, warehousing and logistics contracts.

 

This 1 hour session will focus on common pinch points in co-packing arrangements, and how you can use your contracts to:

  • Avoid disputes about the quality of your work
  • Protect against cancellations of orders or late supply of product by customers
  • Create leeway on delivery times and quality obligations
  • Limit your liability effectively and in a market-standard way
  • Recoup investments you make in equipment, systems or staff for a specific customer
  • Clarify who is responsible for EPR compliance
  • Vary the agreed price to cover unexpected costs and preserve profit margin
  • Deal with owns the intellectual property rights in jointly designed packaging

We will look at pro-supplier and pro-customer positions so that you can understand what each party is seeking to achieve, and how to reach a sensible compromise.

Following the 1 hour webinar, the session will run into an optional 30 minute legal clinic to give an opportunity to ask questions about problems you have experienced when negotiating co-packing contracts and discuss potential solutions for use in future.
