In parallel, we are exploring the opportunity to blend selected products locally. We have access to a blending facility in Kuwait owned by our associates, equipped with a laboratory and technical expertise to monitor and ensure compliance with the required parameters. I would appreciate it if you could advise on the following:
1. Which of the chemicals listed in the RFQ you recommend for local blending for cost savings and to attract the customers in Kuwait for commercial advantages mutually.
2. For chemicals that are better suited for import, whether you can support the supply in a concentrated form with formulations support for solvent-based, oil-based, or water-based systems.
This approach will help us evaluate potential cost savings in logistics and other operational areas.
Upon receiving your confirmation and pricing, I propose scheduling a detailed online meeting to discuss strategies and align on a business plan. This will ensure a mutually beneficial collaboration and pave the way for success in the region.
Thank you in advance for your prompt response. I look forward to your feedback.
Thanks & Regards
Su, Wei ( he/him/his )
