Distribution Agreements · glossary

Recommended price

A price the supplier suggests and the distributor is free to ignore. The Agreement recommends €150 a month to rent a machine, as “a recommendation only”. Pressure to keep to it, such as slower deliveries, turns it into a fixed minimum. Agreement, clause 7.4 · Chapter 4 · see Resale price maintenance

Explained in Chapter 4, Prices, Payment Terms and Resale Price Maintenance, of Distribution Agreements.

How it comes up, in Chapter 4
Two things stay allowed. The supplier may give a recommended price, a figure the distributor may ignore. It may also set a maximum, because a ceiling only keeps prices down.
