Document background
The Business Sales Agreement is a fundamental commercial contract used when one business entity wishes to sell goods or services to another business entity in a professional context. This document is particularly important in the Swiss business environment, where it must comply with the Swiss Code of Obligations and related commercial regulations. It is commonly used for both domestic and international transactions, though international sales may also need to consider the CISG (UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods) unless explicitly excluded. The agreement typically includes detailed provisions on product specifications, quality standards, delivery terms, warranties, and liability allocations, making it suitable for various types of business transactions, from one-time sales to ongoing supply relationships. It's designed to provide legal certainty while maintaining commercial flexibility, incorporating Swiss legal requirements for business contracts while addressing practical business needs.
