Yours faithfully
The final greeting in a formal letter depends on the way you started. This letter I imagine will have started with "Dear Sir" or similar, and this is a correct ending if you do not name the person you are addressing. (If, however, you are saying Dear Mr. Smith, then end with Yours sincerely).
There are other acceptable formats, but if you follow the guidelines I mention, then you can't go wrong.

Robert Forstag
: Something like this. In US English, "Yours truly," or "Sincerely" would be more natural (perhaps preceded by something like "I/We look forward to serving all your XXX needs" or "I/We look forward to collaborating with you on XXX" as the context requires).

Yes, I should have mentioned my answer was in GB English - interested to hear that this would sound unnatural there!
