How to protect your business against rising prices: Contractual freedom and price adjustment clauses

With current international conflicts and the energy crisis, we have seen that the price of energy and raw materials is hitting all-time highs, pushing up inflation rates and prices along the supply chain everywhere — with no apparent relief in sight. Especially fashion companies are getting squeezed between rising costs and falling consumer demand.

In order to protect margins, increasing prices is the most effective solution. However, the pressing question remains – especially in view of the upcoming annual price negotiations – how can this be done in a legally secure manner?

In this session on Thursday, 27 October 2022, we will discuss with our experts from Belgium, France and Germany:

• Price adjustment mechanisms: regulation in place, force majeure and hardship
• Force majeure, frustration of contract and economics clauses – scope and impact on contracts and prices
• What type of adjustment clauses exist and how do they work? 
• Are automatic price adjustment provisions the answer? Functioning and legal restrictions for price adjustments

We are happy to invite you to our Fashion & Luxury Law Academy to join our webinar for insights and discussion.
