Dear Mr Oscar,

The Marketing Department has passed it on to every officer and it seems that your suggestion regarding the repacking of the marketed foods is the most strategic way to boost sales.

You are right in suggesting that coming out with Foods-Ready-to-Eat in Tetra Pack will reduce our expenses paid to carriers. The shipping of canned foods is very expensive because of the heavy cans. With tetra pack, the shipping charge will dramatically drop because of the lighter weight. And as we save from shipping charges, we can give our customers special discounts to encourage them to buy our products.

Your idea makes good sense; it will result to lower costs and improved sales. With this, we take our hats off to you. The contribution you have presented will improve the performance of the Sales and Marketing Department.

We are grateful for your idea and hope to hear more.

Yours truly,

Thurston Hown

1. As you did not give any special instructions for forwarding we are passing your order to our forwarding agency in the usual way.

2. We have not yet had precise shipping instructions and are holding your order until these arrive.

3. We understand your concern with packing and can assure you that we take every possible precaution to ensure that our products reach our customers all over the world in prime condition.

4. Each jar is wrapped in tissue paper before being placed in its individual decorative cardboard box. The boxes are then packed in strong cardboard cartons, twelve to a carton, separated from each other by corrugated paper dividers.

5. If you cannot deliver the goods within the next month, we will have to cancel the order and get the goods elsewhere.

6. Our Import License is due to expire on the 30th of this month. We therefore urge you to do everything possible to hasten the dispatch.

7. We normally pride ourselves on keeping to our delivery dates, but in this case the order was more complex and time-consuming than we had anticipated.

8. If we do not receive confirmation of this revised shipping date by return, we will be obliged to cancel this order and will seek another supplier.

9. After signing the addendum to the contract, our company instructed the manufacturing works to start shipping the parts to the port.

10. In accordance with the schedule of the delivery of equipment and its erection oversized heavy-weight technological metal structures will be delivered first of all.
