Dear Ms Zhang,

Upon receiving the assignment, we promptly contacted the designated contact person (consignee) and were informed that the joint survey was scheduled for the same afternoon. Accompanied by the consignee, we arrived at their cold storage facility at 1330hrs on the same day. Upon inspecting the container on-site, we observed that it was generally in good condition, with only a few dents, repair marks, and a damaged non-return valve of the drain hole. The refrigeration unit was functioning properly, as indicated by the panel displaying a set temperature of -20 degrees Celsius. During the inspection, the return air temperature displayed on the panel was approximately -4 degrees Celsius.

The consignee claimed that the return air temperature had exceeded 20 degrees Celsius during delivery and was accompanied by a foul odor. We also noticed a strong odor near the container on-site. However, the consignee received unexpected instructions from the shipper, stating that the lead seal should not be removed until the cargo insurance surveyor arrived, resulting in the postponement of the inspection. This morning, we received a message from the consignee informing us that the inspection has been rescheduled for 1000hrs on July 19. Our qualified inspector, Yin Mengfei, will be attending the inspection as per our work arrangements. Thank you for your attention.

Best regards, [Your Name]
