Simple scheduled transfer of CSV from an FTP location to a wordpress install

I currently have a woocommerce install, we are using a data import feed to import the product information from a CSV, however we can only import form a local file and the suppliers only provide FTP access to the CSV file so...



I need to set up a cron job that goes invia FTP to our suppliers account, downloads the CSV file and uploads it to our server where woocommerce is installed, need to run this daily at say 1am and the import needs to overwrite the current file etc



Have read a number of threads on this but maybe I am missing a simple way to to do this, any help appreciated
