Dear Sirs,
We were impressed by the selection of sweaters that were displayed on your stand at the “Menswear Exhibition” that was held in Hamburg last month.
We are large chain of retailers and are looking for a manufacturer who could supply us with a wide range of sweaters for the teenage market.
As we usually place very large orders, we would expect a quantity discount in addition to a 20% trade discount off net list prices, and our terms of payment are normally 30-day bill of exchange, documents against acceptance.
If these conditions interest you, and you can meet orders of over 500 garments at one time, please send us your current catalogue and price-list. We hope to hear from you soon.
Yours faithfully,
L. Grane
Chief Buyer
