Sale of Goods Act 1979

As amended by the Sale of Goods Act 1994, the Act implies, inter alia, in contracts for the sale of goods by a business, that the seller promises that the goods will of satisfactory quality, will be as described and will be fit for purpose. The seller as a trader will be liable for any breach that causes injury but may have recourse against his supplier. The Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 restricts the exclusion or limitation of liability in relation to these terms depending on whether it is a consumer sale or a non-consumer sale.
