Document background
The Raw Material Supply Contract is essential for businesses engaged in the procurement of raw materials in or through Switzerland. It establishes a formal framework for the ongoing supply relationship, ensuring compliance with Swiss legal requirements, particularly the Swiss Code of Obligations and relevant regulatory standards. This document is typically used when companies require regular supply of specific raw materials under consistent terms, need to ensure quality standards, and want to establish clear pricing and delivery mechanisms. The contract addresses crucial aspects such as product specifications, quality control procedures, delivery terms, risk allocation, and compliance with Swiss and international standards. It's particularly important given Switzerland's role as a major trading hub and its specific regulatory requirements, while also considering its relationship with EU markets and international trade regulations.
