to recover (recoup) from the buyer (customer/purchaser)

Explanation:
"compenseren" can also mean set-off but I can't see any indication from the provided text of any claims that could be set-off against each other - here it is only a question of claims that the supplier or its affiliated companies have against the purchaser. In this case then I read "compenseren" as "vergoeden".
