Dear Mr. Smith,
Thank you for your trust in our company. I’ve read your email about the leaflets incorrectly delivered to your company. I’d like to express our sincere apology for the inconvenience due to our carelessness.

由于
It happened that there was another company who ordered similar leaflets in the same district as your company. The staff member in charge of the delivery put the wrong address sheet on the package and thus caused the problem.
Since we have been partners for so long, we’ll try our best to work out a better solution for you. We’ll arrange a second delivery as quickly as possible and make sure you receive the right leaflets tomorrow. As for the wrong leaflets, our delivery man will get the package back from your company when he makes the delivery tomorrow.

We’re sorry again for all the trouble. We sincerely hope you will support our company as always.
Best wishes!
Sincerely,
Richard Brown
