Business to Business Email
Business to business communications is extremely important for businesses to thrive. This communication is often about products and services that are exchanged between businesses. As is the case, the vendor is a client to another vendor.
Emails are an effective and efficient way to conduct business to business communication. These emails can reduce the time needed to sort matters out and you can actually achieve in hours which would previously have taken weeks. Start the email by clearly explaining the purpose in the first paragraph.
In the second paragraph, shed more light on the importance of the topic under discussion and how it can impact both organisations.
Conclude the email by expressing hope of a strong business relationship to develop or to continue in the future. Do not forget to put the appropriate closing at the end of the email.

Dear James,
I am emailing you to ask you to increase our weekly supply of tuna fish from 100 pounds to 140 pounds effective from the next order as the demand of tuna based dishes has recently gone up. The terms of payment are requested to remain the same as before.
As we are a growing restaurant and relatively new to the market, we will have to add to our supply needs gradually. Thus, we are ordering more on the basis of what is needed and not taking any chances of the cooking supplies going bad due to a drop in demand.
We have so far had a great working relationship and hope that this can continue in the long run.
Regards,
Wayne Michaels
