"Meadowbrook Fuel is a large national company that markets fuel oil in the city of Westerville. The company sells fuel oil in the area surrounding Westerville for a lower price than it does in the city, where it already controls a substantial share of the market and has little competition. The competition in the surrounding area is largely from small companies. Meadowbrook would be in violation of the Robinson-Patman Act for such discriminatory pricing practices".
