建立办事处 Establishment of new branch
Dear Mr. / Ms,
Owing to the large increase in the volume of our trade with this country we have decided to open a branch here, with Mr. Wang Lo as manager. The new branch will open on 1st March and from that date all orders and inquiries should be sent to Mr. Wang Lo at the above address, instead of to our London office.
We take this opportunity to express our thanks for your cooperation in the past. We hope the new arrangements will lead to even better results.
Yours faithfully
歇业 Discontinuation of business
Dear Mr/Ms,
With the demolition of our premises at the above address under a redevelopment scheme, the part of our business carried on there will be discontinued after the end of October.
On Monday, 1st October, we are holding a closing-out sale. Stock on hand will be cleared regardless of cost. There will be substantial reductions in all departments and
in some cases, prices will be marked down by as much as one half.
Stock to be cleared is unrivaled in both variety and quality. As the sale is likely to be well attended, we hope you make a point of visiting the store as early as possible during the opening days.
Yours faithfully
更改名称和地址 Change of name and address
Dear Mr. / Ms,

We will appreciate your informing the appropriate departments of these changes.
Yours faithfully

咨询 Consultation
Dear Mr. / Ms,
We are much concerned that your sales in recent months have fallen considerably. At first we thought this might be due to a slack market, but on looking into the matter more closely, we find that the general trend of trade during this period has been upwards.
It is possible that you are facing difficulties of which we are not aware. If so, we would like to know what we can do to help. We, therefore, look forward to receivingfrom you a detailed report on the situation and suggestions as to how we may help in restoring our sales to their former level.
Yours faithfully
道歉与解释Apology & Explanation
Dear Mr. / Ms,
We are sorry we cannot send you immediately the catalogue and price list for which you asked in your letter of March 10. Supplies are expected from the printers in two weeks and as soon as we receive them, we will send you a copy.
Yours faithfully
Dear Mr. / Ms,
I was very concerned when I received your letter of yesterday complaining that the central heating system in your new house had not been completed by the date promised. On referring to our earlier correspondence, find that I had mistaken the date for completion. The fault is entirely mine and I deeply regret that it should have occurred.
I realize the inconvenience our oversight must be causing you and will do everything possible to avoid any further delay. I have already given instructions for the work to have priority and the engineers working on the job to be placed on overtime. These arrangements should see the installation completed by next weekend.
Yours faithfully

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
