Dear Mr. Kushi Sato,

I understand you are a busy man and I want to thank you for your time in considering our company’s proposal for a global franchise collaboration.

I am Krisha Terrobias, the head of Research and Development at Sweet Laie. Our company is interested in expanding the goods that we offer and globalizing our brand starting in Japan.

We are Sweet Laie located in Oahu, Hawaii. Our products are mainly produced organically in Laie which makes our sweets flavors more tropical and fruitful.

As our CEO is interested in building a location in Japan, we are looking for a partner in creating more flavors that match the market of Japan. We have done extensive research and found that your company, Afternoon Tea, is an emerging leader in popular traditional and contemporary Japanese flavors. We would like to discuss building a long-term wholesale partnership between Afternoon Tea and Sweet Laie. We believe that this collaboration will be beneficial to both of our companies.

I understand you must be extremely busy at this time of the year, but I would really appreciate it if you could have a time to have a meeting with us via zoom.

Here are our suggestion dates:
September 22, 2022 10am (JST)
September 23, 2022  12pm (JST)
September 26, 2022   12pm (JST)

Thank you again for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing back from you soon

Kind regards,

Krisha Terrobias
