Thank you for your kind words. We look forward to contributing to the future growth of [xxxxxxx].
This version seems to capture the two essential points of "thanking" and "being ready to help the company grow" without being overly wordy or unctuous.
If the response is to an opinion survey or some such, then the first part could be translated as Tthank you for your feedback."
Suerte.

if our contribution is in any way valuable
"en tanto en cuanto" is a conditional (as well as part of the rhetorical flourish of that clause), so I would open with "if". The strictly correct version would be "in so far as"... but this seems to put too much pressure on the 'freely given' offer, so I would go for the more discreet "if".
