Sales Contract Generator (UK)

A sales contract is the agreement that documents the sale price, delivery terms, and title transfer when a UK business sells goods to another business or a consumer. This free UK sales contract generator produces one-off and recurring sales agreements, reflecting the Sale of Goods Act 1979 for business-to-business sales and the Consumer Rights Act 2015 where the buyer is a consumer. It is designed for UK wholesalers, manufacturers, and retailers who need a clear contract governing bulk or B2B goods sales without engaging a commercial solicitor. The generator lets you specify delivery terms, payment schedules, and retention of title until payment is received in full. Use it to document the sale clearly, protect cash flow with retention of title provisions, and reduce the risk of disputes over goods quality or delivery.

Frequently asked questions

What is a sales contract?

A sales contract is a written agreement documenting the sale price, delivery terms, and ownership transfer when goods are sold from a seller to a buyer.

What does the Sale of Goods Act 1979 imply into a sales contract?

It implies terms such as the seller's right to sell the goods and, where sold in the course of business, that they are of satisfactory quality and fit for purpose, unless validly excluded in a business-to-business sale.

How does the Consumer Rights Act 2015 change things?

If the buyer is a consumer rather than a business, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 applies instead and gives the buyer non-excludable rights to goods that are of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, and as described.

What is a retention of title clause?

Often called a Romalpa clause, it states that ownership of the goods does not pass to the buyer until the seller has received payment in full, protecting the seller if the buyer becomes insolvent before paying.

What should a sales contract include?

A description of the goods, price, payment terms, delivery method and timing, when title and risk pass to the buyer, and any warranties.

What happens if goods delivered don't match the sales contract?

The buyer may have a claim for breach of the implied terms under the Sale of Goods Act 1979 or the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which could include rejection, repair, replacement, or a refund.
