Exclusive dealings are contracts between manufacturers and distributors that require the distributor to purchase most or all of their inventory of a certain product from that specific manufacturer.
These contracts are common and generally lawful, but may violate antitrust law if they close off a “substantial share” of a market and prevent entry into that market, harming competition.
Under federal and some state laws, private parties (businesses or consumers) who were harmed by anticompetitive conduct can bring antitrust lawsuits seeking damages (in some instance treble damages) and injunctive relief.
