Hi XXX,

Hope you had a great holiday.

I just wanted to follow up with you on the cast iron cookware and to confirm a few things.

We have sent the attached 2 cast iron skillets, one with one layer of pre-seasoning and the other one with 2 layers of pre-seasoning to you today via UPS with tracking # H9373918432. Please let us know your feedback once received.

As you may have heard, the Chinese government has taken a series of major actions to protect the environment, such as controlling the power supply, forcing / encouraging factories to cut back their production if the local pollution index has been exceeded. In the interest of increased visibility and guidance to ensure smooth communication with our factory, would you be able to share with us the sales data of these cast iron cookware for the recent 2 years? This will allow us to make the appropriate arrangements to secure the raw material and reserve their production lines for your orders on an annual basis. Furthermore, we know that there will be several shipments for this cast iron cookware, so would it be possible for you to please let us know the in store date and the order quantity for the first shipment?

Thanks.

Hi XXX,

Please find attached quotes from our vendor for 1 layer and 2 layers of pre-seasoning cast iron cookware.

Due to recent environmental protection situation in China and these items are highly material cost sensitive, attached offer is valid till 09/26. Also, please note that vendor quoted these prices based on the total quantity of the whole project since they would need to secure the material based on the annual quantity with their raw material supplier to hold the price.

For 14″ and 16″ ovens, below metal plates are on the products. However, since the size info is already shown on the lid, vendor suggests no need to add below metal plates. If you would still want to add these plates, it will cost extra $0.10 per piece and the tooling fee is $230 per plate.

Please kindly review them with your merchant team and looking forward to receiving your final decision soon.

Thank you.
