I know you’re well aware that sales have been soft lately for us. Well, this has caused us to reexamine the profitability of all of our vendor relationships. Because the costs of your goods are much higher than other paper product suppliers we do business with, we are going to terminate our current relationship with Pompton Paper Products.
Our decision reflects our decision to get our gross margins in better shape and in no way should reflect badly on the service we’ve received from your sales representatives nor on the quality of your goods. The professionals at Pompton Paper Products are among the most helpful and informed with whom we do business.
I am really hopeful that economic conditions change so that we’re able to do business with Pompton Paper Products again. Until then, please know that we’ve appreciated the service you’ve given us over the past eight years and are grateful for all the help you’ve given us in establishing ourselves as the leading retailer of stationery supplies in the Southwest.
Sincerely,
