Could you explain the meaning of a sentence from buisiness mail
I've got a business mail from my correspondent. But I can't fully understand the meaning of one of sentences from the mail.
Below is the sentence:
We(B company) have advised the "A company" only of our initial conversations with no deliverable time frame currently should they preference your product.
I understand that B company has talked A company with no precise time table. What I can't understand is the rest part of the sentence. "should they preference your product" Dose it mean "If they give preference your product"
Understanding the meaning of business English is totally different from daily conversation. It's really hard to me.

I think they meant to write 'if they prefer your product'
I think that the writer is not a native speaker.

Yes, "preference" is just a fancy way to say "prefer". He means they've had conversations about your product, but not committed to any deadlines in the case that the other company wants to use your product.

I'll take your word that the writer is a native speaker. But I have to tell you that this does not sound like a native speaker to me: with no deliverable time frame currently should they preference your product
