AAA公司终于与BBB公司签订了合
约,成为生意搭档。这对后者来说,尤其值得庆祝,因而举行了一个庆功宴,接待来访的Mckenzie跟Lloyd。BBB身为东道主公司当然要向AAA的代表们表白感激,因此Jennifer又上台了。
May I have your attention, please. I'd like to take a moment to offer my sincere thanks to Bob Mckenzie and Andrea Lloyd of AAA Suppliers.
As you know, AAA and BBB have inked an agreement to distribute five major BBB brands in Canada. This joint venture is cause to celebrate because it marks BBB's entry into the Canadian appliance market.
We couldn't have asked for a better business partner. With BBB's groundbreaking appliances and AAA's well-established distribution network, we can both stay one step ahead of the competition.
I think I speak for all my fellow employees when I say that we at BBB are delighted to be working with an industry leader like AAA. I anticipate nothing but growth for our companies over the next few years.
请各位注意,我想占用各位一点时光来向AAA家用电器公司的Bob Mckenzie和Andrea Lloyd抒发我真挚的感谢 。
如各位所知,AAA和BBB双方已签署合约。AAA将在加拿大经销本公司的五种重要产品。这次合作之所以值得庆贺,是由于从当初开端,我们行将进入加拿大的家用电器市场。
我们不可能再找到一个更好的事业伙伴了。以BBB不断翻新的产品,加上AAA健全的配销网络,我们两家公司将能因此领先竞争对手。
我谨代表BBB公司的全部同仁向AAA公司致意,能与贵公司这样的业界翘楚配合,咱们都觉得十分愉快。我坚信我们两家公司在将来多少年必定可能一直成长。
短语讲解
joint venture 共同投资;合资

distribution network 配销网络;销售网
