Information Request - E-Mania Games
Dear Mr Thomas,
I recently visited your stand at the Milano Expo, where I saw a demonstration of your 'E-Mania Games'. Unfortunately, there were a lot of people on your stand, so I was unable to speak to one of your representatives. As one of Italy's largest distributors of electronic games and consoles, we are constantly seeking new products for our customers we are interested to see if your products match our requirements.
I would therefore be most grateful if you could send me a full product catalogue, details of your supply terms and of course retail and distribution pricing. If you require a signed confidentiality agreement before providing this information, you may email a copy to pt@electricadistribution.it or fax it to +39 0005 5555024.
I look forward to receiving your response and hope that we can do business together. In any event, please do not hesitate to contact me should you require further information.
Yours sincerely,
Paolo Maldini
Business Development Manager
