Margaret Wiles HARPER AND GRANT LIMITED Cheboksary Electro- mechanical college, 17, Jakovlev Avenue, Cheboksary, Chuvashia, Russia, 428000 Tel. 8(352) 21-45-15 10th December , 2008 Dear sir, Miss Harper of the Export Services Branch, Board of Trade asked me to write to you direct. Our company specializes in making high quality office furniture and equipment. I suggest you to visit one of our exhibitions for about ten days in late December to study on the spot ways of introducing our products to the Russian market. They will take place in one of the following cities: New York, London, Calgary, Sydney and Auckland. I understand there is no import duty. A clerk with the customs has shown that little equipment of this kind has ever been sold to Russia and I understand Italian and French firms have been the main suppliers. Six copies of our catalogue are enclosed. If you can help me in working out an itinerary and introduce me to possible buyers and agents during your visit I should be most grateful. Yours faithfully, John Martin Sales Manager HARPER AND GRANT LTD.
