Re: Your visit to Ludova Technologies Slovensko Alan
Here‘s the information about Ludova Technologies. It isn‘t much, I‘m afraid, but it‘s all we have.
The company is 15 years old and employs about 20 people. It‘s located in the south west of Slovakia, on the Austrian border. They make electrical goods such as pocket radios, but we‘re not really sure what else. Can you find out the following and write a report recommending what we should do?
Don‘t forget to make a final recommendation The factory ?

Wide range, good quality Quite low due to old machines Your flight and hotel are booked and Mr pavol Kukura will meet you at the airport on Friday. Good luck! Long delivery [范文] times-explain why Report on suitability of Ludova Technologies Slovensko (LTS) Introduction
This report aims to assess whether the Slovakian company Ludova Technologies would be a suitable supplier of electrical goods. Findings
A recent visit to the company showed that its facilities are quite old, resulting in a limited production capacity. Despite this, LTS produces an extensive range of high-quality products including radios, cassette recorders and CD players.
However, out-of-date machinery means delivery times of up to three months. This may change when the planned modernisation takes place. Conclusion
LTS would not be suitable for large orders that require quick delivery Recommendations
It is recommended that we remain in contact with LTS and reconsider a supply contract once the factory modernisation is completed.
