‘Pedido’ is masculine singular, so the possessive must be singular ‘nuestro’, not plural ‘nuestros’.

Cultural Tip
In Spanish‑speaking countries, using ‘poder + infinitive’ is the go‑to structure for polite requests. ‘¿Puedes…?’ is informal‑friendly; for a more formal tone (e.g., with a client or a senior manager) switch to ‘¿Podría…?’ or add ‘por favor’ after the verb. Also, remember that ‘pedido’ can refer to a restaurant order, a shopping cart, or a formal purchase order, so the context determines the level of formality.
