We are pleased to inform you that starting with
the next shipment we will use cartons instead
of wooden cases to pack the shirts.
The benefits of such a change are as follows:
It will prevent skillful pilferage because the
trace of pilferage will be more in evidence; 2) A
carton lined with plastic sheets can protect
shirts better than a wooden case; (3) Cartons
are comparatively light and compact, and
therefore are more convenient to handle.
Our proposal above is based on the negative
experiences of the past shipments where
wooden cases have been used.
We make this decision deliberately and look
forward to your confirmation.
Yours faithfully,
