Dear Madam or Sin Our company is one of the leading suppliers of speciality chemicals to a wide range of industries in Eastern and Central Europe, where we have 12 branches. We therefore employ staff of many different nationalities. With a view to increasing the efficiency of our operations, we wish to send a group of middle managers on executive language courses in the UK. We would like our staff not only to improve their communication skills, but also to further their knowledge of the kind of English needed in management and in the chemical industry. One of our business colleagues has recommended your college as one of the best. Could you please let us have full details of your executive courses, such as term dates, fees and accommodation with host families. Good management looks after its existing clientele superbly and goes after markets offering the largest sales. Any other relevant details would be appreciated. As we envisage sending 10 to 15 managers a year, we will naturally be looking for competitive offers and a lasting business relationship. We look forward to your reply.
