1. Supplier Agreement
A Supplier Agreement is a legally binding contract that governs the relationship between a supplier and a buyer regarding the supply of goods or services. In Malaysia, this agreement is typically governed by the Contracts Act 1950, the Sale of Goods Act 1957, and in some cases, the Consumer Protection Act 1999 (if end-users are individuals).
Key Provisions in a Supplier Agreement:
Description and specification of goods/services
Delivery schedules and logistics
Pricing, payment terms, and taxes
Product warranties and quality assurance
Limitation of liability
Termination rights and dispute resolution
Force Majeure (unforeseeable events clause)
Whether you are a manufacturer, wholesaler, or importer/exporter, The Law Chambers of Gurvin drafts custom Supplier Agreements to reduce commercial risk and ensure legal clarity under Malaysian law.
Common Industries:
Food and beverage distribution
Construction materials
Retail and e-commerce supply chains
Automotive parts and industrial machinery
We also advise on long-term supply contracts, exclusivity clauses, and compliance with Ministry of Domestic Trade (KPDN) regulations.
2. Sub-Contractor Agreement
A Sub-Contractor Agreement is a contract between a main contractor and a third party (sub-contractor) engaged to perform specific tasks within a larger project. These are especially common in construction, oil & gas, ICT, and facilities management industries in Malaysia.
This agreement is governed by the Contracts Act 1950 and, for construction works, may be subject to CIDB Malaysia regulations, PAM conditions, and local authority by-laws.
Key Legal Elements:
Scope of work, technical specifications, and deliverables
Timeline, milestones, and project deadlines
Payment schedule, retention sum, and penalties for delay
Occupational health & safety compliance (DOSH, CIDB)
Indemnity and insurance coverage
Variation orders and change request handling
Dispute resolution: mediation, arbitration, or litigation
We help both main contractors and sub-contractors protect their interests with clear, enforceable agreements. Our legal team also ensures alignment with Principal Agreements to avoid flow-down liability or contract breach.
3. Product Supply Agreement
A Product Supply Agreement governs the continuous or bulk supply of physical goods between a supplier and a buyer. It is vital for companies involved in manufacturing, distribution, retail, or exports. In Malaysia, it is enforceable under the Contracts Act 1950 and the Sale of Goods Act 1957.
What We Include in a Product Supply Agreement:
Product specifications, testing, and quality control
Delivery terms: Incoterms, transport risk, and insurance
Packaging, labeling, and compliance with SIRIM/DVS/MOH standards
Pricing structure (fixed, tiered, or dynamic pricing)
Volume commitments and purchase forecasts
Product returns, defects, and warranty claims
Termination clauses and notice periods
We tailor Product Supply Agreements to suit both domestic and international trade, including import/export regulations, customs documentation, and sales tax/GST compliance.
