APPOINTED
MMI SFI (Sabrosa Foods,
Inc.) with the approval of Del Monte, as
MMI’s marketing arm to concentrate on its
marketing and selling function as well as to
manage its critical relationship with the
trade.
FACTS of the Case : COMPLAINT
MMI, MMI’s Managing Director, and SFI (Note: SFI is a third party to the
agreement between Del Monte and MMI) filed a complaint against Del Monte.
MMI et al. predicated their complaint on the alleged violations by Del Monte et al.
of Articles 20, 21, and 23 of the Civil Code.
They alleged that the products brought into the country by these importers were
aged, damaged, fake or counterfeit, so that in March 1995 they had to cause the
publication of a "warning to the trade" paid advertisement in leading newspapers.
DMC-USA, apparently upset with the publication, instructed private respondent
MMI to stop coordinating with Antonio Ongpin and to communicate directly
instead with DMC-USA through Paul E. Derby, Jr.
