Dear Sirs,

Thank you very much for your recent order; we hope that it is the first of many.

As we have not had the pleasure of doing business with you in the past, we are enclosing a copy of our invoice, and would ask you to arrange payment either by banker's draft, or by opening an irrevocable letter of credit in our favor.

Please advise.

Cordially,

[NAME]
