commercial contract
Mountain Stream Trout Co. agreed to buy “market size” trout from trout grower Lake Farms, LLC. Their five-year contract did not define market size. At the time, in the trade, market size referred to fish of one pound live weight. After three years, Mountain Stream began taking fewer, smaller deliveries of larger fish, claiming that market size varied according to whatever its customers demanded and that its customers now demanded larger fish. Lake Farms filed a suit for breach of contract.
