Sales Agreements

Do your sales agreements offer you the protection to do business abroad?

10 points to consider when scooping an agreement

  • Do your products/services require agents or distributors? 
  • Current legislation in the overseas and EU markets 
  •  "Gentleman's" or formal agreement? 
  • Non exclusive or exclusive 
  • The territory - caution required in the EU 
  • Duration - limit to 12 months if possible 
  • Your obligations for support, visits etc. 
  • Agent or Distributor obligations for orders, activity, reports etc.  
  • Commissions for agents. Distributor Incoterms and payment terms (credit facilities?). 
  • Contract termination procedures and obligations. 

Services available from the Chamber

If you are thinking of appointing an Agent or a Distributor overseas, the Chambers Agreement Drafting Service could, in addition to saving you both time and money, lay the foundations of a smooth and successful international trading relationship.

For a fixed fee of only £395 we will conduct a one-to-one diagnostic interview with you to ascertain the agreement terms and then prepare a written agreement tailored to your and your trading partner's requirements.

It is a start to finish service - we guide and assist you from initial discussion through to agreement signing.

Having a written trading agreement in place is very important especially when conducting business with overseas clients, and this new service represents very good value when compared with traditional sources
