Small Businesses Hurt By Agents

Mr. Cai, who runs a dry shop in Li Jia Tuo, is very unhappy recently, because a group of bright milk backlogs on sale have finally cost him nearly 2000 yuan.

Yesterday, he called the party newspaper hotline, saying that because of the agent's "wrangling" and refusing to honour his promises, his business losses could not be compensated.

He hoped that the agent could straighten out his relationship as soon as possible to compensate for his losses.

Businessman: milk expired, who will pay for the loss?

According to Mr. Cai, at the beginning of this year, a salesman of Chengdu Mei Bang Ding Sheng, who was acting Guangming milk, found him and asked him to sell bright milk.

The salesman promised that this is a promotional activity made by the manufacturer. If it can not be sold, or the milk is out of date, the agent will be responsible for the replacement, so as to ensure the interests of the operators.

So Mr. Cai spent more than 2000 yuan to buy about 70 brands of milk for sale.

However, let Mr. Cai unexpectedly, in April of this year, the batch of milk has passed the shelf life. When he found that the United States wanted to return the product, the company said it had already terminate the agency contract with the producer of Guangming milk. The matter of the dealer's replacement will be handled by Guangming company.

Since then, the company has been at Chengdu's enthalpy foothills.

"In the past few months, I have laboriously sold hundreds of bright milk, not only without making money, but also losing money."

Yesterday, Mr. Cai was deeply grieved about the matter. He thought it was the agent's "wrangling" that led to the delay in the interests of the operators.

The United States should take responsibility for the aftermath.

"Guangming company promises to deal with the remaining problems properly, and the operators should return to the Guangming company."

Yesterday morning, the reporter interviewed Liu Moushi, manager of Chengdu Mei Bang Ding Sheng company, Liu said.

According to Liu, since the change of the agent of milk in Chengdu in 4 this year, Guangming company has withdrawn the agency power of Chengdu, and the two sides have terminated the agency agreement.

At that time, Guangming company's staff in charge of sales in Chengdu promised that the company was responsible for the refund of goods and overdue commodities.

Therefore, Liu believes that Mr. Cai's expired milk should be returned by light company.

However, Liu also said he would actively assist Mr. Cai in handling the remaining problems properly, and the two sides would further consult.

Guangming: the United States has received milk money.

Zhou Tao, the management manager of Guangming milk, was confirmed by Zhou Tao, the management manager of Chengdu.

Zhou Tao said that the agent sales of Smith Barney was not very satisfactory, and the company promised to deal with the remaining problems after the withdrawal of the agency.

However, when Mr. Cai returned to expired milk, he had repeatedly dispatched staff to deal with it, but he had reservations about the specific replacement plan.

Zhou Tao said that the money of those commodities was collected by the US state company, and it should be responsible for the replacement and handling of the aftermath.

Finally, Zhou Tao promised that, considering the loss of Mr. Cai's business, the company would like to compensate 25 bright milk worth about 600 yuan.

Lawyer: the sale of goods should also be signed.

According to Mr. Cai, the emergence of this agency dispute is not related to the signing of the corresponding agency agreement.

At first, the US bond company promised to replace the overstock and expired products, but it was only an oral agreement between the two sides, and no written agreement was signed.

In this regard, She Yong, director of Huimin law firm in Chengdu, warned that when agents sell goods, they must sign detailed agency agreements with agents. In addition to stipulate the names, specifications and prices of commodities, the agreement should also be agreed on the corresponding items, ways and so on. Verbal promises like "gentlemen's agreement" often make disputes difficult to solve.

She also believes that after the agency changes, if the company reclaims the agent's right of agency, it promises to deal with the remaining problems properly.

Whether we can properly handle the remaining problems and ensure the interests of terminal operators is also one of the yardsticks for considering the integrity of enterprises.
