Description
Plaintiff-appellee-cross-appellant Island Tobacco Company, Ltd. (hereafter Island Tobacco) purchases cigarettes and other tobacco products from manufacturers for sale and delivery to approximately 500 retailers on Oahu. Being a "service jobber," the delivery of these wares to retail outlets is an important element of its jobbing function. Essentially, it is involved in the wholesaling of all major brands of cigarettes and other tobacco products to smaller retailers. This litigation stems from a decision reached in 1974 by the largest American manufacturer of cigarettes to engage in, through a wholly owned subsidiary corporation, the "service jobbing" of its cigarettes and other products on Oahu, a function theretofore performed exclusively by Island Tobacco.
