They're shipping your packaging. Actively. Every single day. UPS Worldport in Louisville processes thousands of parcels using your custom logistics materials with visible tracking data showing continuous usage across global air freight routes. But your $56K packaging supply invoice from October sits unpaid because your Louisville contact says "waiting for quarterly logistics settlement"—and has said exactly that for 104 days.
The invoice references an LLC in Louisville (UPS Worldport hub), but they redirect you to the Lexington regional operations office. Lexington says Bowling Green distribution center handles vendor payments for packaging supplies. Location confusion across Kentucky (Louisville global logistics hub vs Lexington operations vs Bowling Green distribution)—and your invoice sits unpaid while they ship packages internationally using your materials generating revenue every hour of every day.
You have the signed supply agreement, delivery confirmations to UPS Worldport, and usage reports showing continuous material consumption across three shifts daily. They've gone silent for 104 days, and you're not sure if this is legitimate logistics billing cycle timing (quarterly settlements really do exist in freight), manufacturing quality disputes appearing retroactively, Louisville vs Lexington organizational confusion, Kentucky's Southern business relationship culture ("we've worked well together"), or whether escalation in Kentucky's tight logistics and bourbon industry network damages all future supply opportunities across the state.
If this sounds familiar, you're in the right place:
- Net 30-45 terms routinely drift to Net 90-150+ with "quarterly logistics settlement" or "bourbon batch revenue pending" responses accepted as normal Kentucky timing
- Acceptance disputes appear only after payment requests (logistics packaging specifications, bourbon production materials, automotive component tolerances)
- Entity confusion: Louisville Worldport operations vs Lexington offices vs Bowling Green/Owensboro facilities (nobody owns the invoice across Kentucky locations)
- Decision-maker who approved is now "waiting for quarterly settlement" or "batch revenue cycle" and operations contact won't make payment decisions
- Evidence scattered: supply agreements, delivery confirmations, usage reports, acceptance emails across logistics and manufacturing systems
- Logistics billing cycles: "quarterly settlement pending" or "freight accounting timing" creates indefinite delays in Louisville's massive UPS hub ecosystem
- Cross-state complications: you're outside Kentucky, unfamiliar with Louisville logistics culture and Southern business relationship expectations
- Louisville Worldport vs Lexington/Bourbon Country: global logistics culture vs local bourbon/equine operations—different business paces
