Re: Production of Harmful Dog Food
I am compelled to express concern about the report of harmful bacteria being found in one of the brands in the company. In fact, it is a report that requires careful attention since it can negatively affect the reputation of this reputable company.
As the chairperson of this company, there is a report which has been going around the country overnight about pets falling sick with an allegation that they consumed dog food currently being manufactured in the company.
Since the business has not been operating for more than six months and such type of reports can be detrimental to company's operation and reputation.
Additionally, as administrators, there is need to take responsibility for building and preserving the reputation of the company. As a result, there is need of performing investigation about the matter. Subsequently, an action should be taken to find a remedy to the problem (Clampitt, 2012).
I would like to seek your permission to enable me to bring the issue to the attention of employees. Indeed, employees that are concerned with production section can vividly explain what might have been the cause of the problem (Argenti, 2015). At the same time, the company should find the best way of communicating with stakeholders as well as media channels to be used in the passing of message. Thanks for your time and consideration.

As members of this reputable company, the report that has been going around in the country regarding pets falling sick after consuming dog food from our company. Indeed, the matter must be dealt with a lot of concern. The business has not been operating for more than six months, and such type of reports can be detrimental to company's operation and reputation (Clampitt, 2012).
Additionally, I would advise our members to treat the report going around that is not truthful until a high-profile investigation is conducted concerning that issue (Certo, 2015). Members are cautioned to abide with the legal and ethics of the company while discussing the issue.
I would like to inform you that through the chairperson, there is an order of conducting an investigation in the production unit to determine the legality of the matter. Please allow the investigation team to do their job without any restriction and coercion. Finally, I am looking forward to total cooperation and thanks for your time and consideration.
