Document background
This document template is designed for establishing formal preferred supplier relationships under Swiss law. A Preferred Supplier Contract is typically used when a company wants to secure a reliable, long-term supply arrangement with favorable terms from a key supplier. The agreement is particularly valuable for businesses requiring consistent quality, guaranteed supply capacity, and preferential pricing arrangements. It incorporates Swiss legal requirements while addressing practical commercial needs such as ordering procedures, quality standards, and performance metrics. The document is structured to comply with the Swiss Code of Obligations while maintaining flexibility for international trade practices. It's especially useful for companies looking to streamline their procurement processes, reduce supply chain risks, and establish strategic supplier partnerships with clear commercial and legal frameworks.
