自米兰阿里斯托鞋类公司取得贵公司的联系地址，特此修函，祈能发展关系。多年来，本公司经营鞋类进口生意，现欲扩展业务范围。盼能惠赐商品目录和报价表。如价格公道，本公司必大额订购。烦请早日赐复。

We have obtained your name and address from Aristo Shoes, Milan, and we are writing to enquire whether you would be willing to establish business relations with us.

Thank you for your letter of the 16th of this month. We shall be glad to enter into business relations with your company. In compliance with your request, we are sending you, under separate cover, our latest catalogue and price list covering our export range. Payment should be made by irrevocable and confirmed letter of credit. Should you wish to place an order, please telex or fax us.

3.请求担任独家代理

本公司担任多家厂家的独家代理，专营精制棉织品，包括各种家用亚麻制品，行销中东。与贵公司向有业务联系，互利互作。贵公司纺织部亦十分了解有关业务合作之情况。盼望能成为贵公司独家代理，推广在巴林市场的货品。上述建议，烦请早日赐复，以便进一步联系合作。

We would like to inform you that we act on a sole agency basis for a number of manufacturers.

We are very interested in an exclusive arrangement with your factory for the promotion of your products in Bahrain. We look forward to your early reply.

4.拒绝对方担任独家代理

9月1日有关建议担任家用亚麻制品独家代理的来信收悉。谨致衷心谢意。目前时机尚未成熟，不能应允该安排深感抱歉。然而，本公司乐意与贵公司先试行合作，为今后合作打下基础。为证明担任独家代理的能力，贵公司宜就上述货品作市场调查，还应扩大现有营业额。奉上该货品之报价单，敬希查照。专此候复。

Thank you for your letter of 1 September suggesting that we grant you a sole agency for our household linens. I regret to say that, at this stage, such an arrangement would be rather premature. We would, however, be willing to engage in a trial collaboration with you company to see how the arrangement works. It would be necessary for you to test the market for our products at you end. You would also have to build up a much larger turnover to justify a sole

agency. We enclose price lists covering all the products you are interested in and look forward to hearing from you soon.

5.同意对方担任独家代理

4月12日建议担任为办公室器具之独家代理来信已经收悉。过去双方合作皆互利互助，能获您的眷顾作我公司于巴林的独家代理，殊感荣幸。据知贵公司两服务技师曾到我公司米兰工厂受训。相信您公司在取得代理权后，仍会继续注重合格售后服务人员的训练。现随信附上协议草稿，请查实各项条款，惠复是盼。能加强业务，我亦感到欣喜，前次到访巴林，蒙盛情款待，不胜感激。祈盼您莅临米兰时，容我一尽地主之谊。

We would be very pleased to entrust you with the sole agency for Bahrain.

We have drawn up a draft agreement that is enclosed. Please examine the detailed terms and conditions and let us know whether they meet with your approval. On a personal note, I must say that I am delighted that we are probably going to strengthen our relationship. I have very pleasant memories of my last visit to Bahrain when you entertained me so delightfully. I look forward to reciprocating（报答）on your next visit to Milan .

My very best wishes to you and your wife.

6.借引荐建立业务关系

本月初参观哈洛加特玩具交易会时有幸与教育玩具股份有限公司的道格拉斯．盖齐先生一谈，提及本公司正物色代理人推广教学器材一事。盖齐先生赞扬贵公司积极推广产品，不断推出新的推销方法，并把其公司的成就归于贵公司完善的经销网络。贵公司的经验，正能替本公司在英国经销产品。本公司生产初级教育各学科的教育器材、专利产品梅特里克教学器材更傲视同侪。除美国教学器材外，亦备有全套英式英语版教材，适合当地市场，贵公司无需忧虑切合市场需求。现附上配有插图的英式英语版教材目录，盼抽空细阅，并赐知宝贵意见。本人拟于10月头两星期前往伦敦，未知能否安排会面，就以上建议作一详谈?

At the beginning of this month, I attended the Harrogate toy fair. While there, I had an interesting conversation with Mr. Douglas Gage of Edutoys plc regarding selecting an agency for our teaching aids.

We need an organization like yours to launch our products in the UK. Our teaching aids cover the whole field of primary education in all subjects .Our patented ‘Matrix’ math apparatus is particularly successful. You may be worried whether American teaching aids suit your market. This is not a problem since we have a complete range of British English versions.

I enclose an illustrated catalogue of our British English editions for your reference/information. Please let me have your reactions to the material. I shall be in London during the first two weeks of October. Perhaps we could arrange a meeting to discuss our proposal.

8. 与过去有贸易往来的公司联系

从同行中获悉贵公司贝鲁特复业，生意发展迅速。得闻喜讯，不胜欢欣。谨祝业务蒸蒸日上。黎巴嫩战事发生前双方曾有多宗纺织品交易；贵公司更是本公司十大客户之一。现今战事平息，亟盼能重展双方互惠的业务联系。自上次合作至今，产品款式变化极大。除了有迎合欧洲人口味的款式外，亦有专门为中东市场而设计的产品。现奉上配有插图的商品目录供初步参考。若需查看样本，还望赐知。

We understand from our trade contacts that your company has reestablished in Beirut and is once again trading successfully in your region. We would like to express our congratulations and offer our very best wishes for your continued success.

We hope that we can resume our mutually beneficial relationship since the peace has returned to Lebanon. Since our last business, our lines have changed a lot. While they reflect current European taste in fabrics, some of our designs are specifically targeted at the Middle East market. As an initial step, I enclose our illustrated catalogue for your reference/perusal. Should you need samples for closer inspection, we will be very happy to forward them. We look forward to hearing from you.
