Distribution contract dispute between a Fujian-based liquor company and its distributor
Case Summary
The plaintiff, a certain winery in Fujian Province, entered into a "White Liquor Distribution Contract" with the defendant, a certain trading company in Xiamen City, appointing the defendant as the exclusive distributor for the Xiamen area. The contract stipulated that the defendant's annual sales target was 1200 ten thousand yuan. If the defendant failed to achieve 80% of the annual sales target, the plaintiff had the right to revoke the defendant's exclusive distribution status, and the defendant would be required to pay liquidated damages equivalent to 10% of the annual sales target. Upon expiration of the contract term, the defendant achieved only 65% of the annual sales target, falling short of the minimum sales requirement agreed upon. Consequently, the plaintiff filed a lawsuit requesting revocation of the defendant's exclusive distribution status and payment of liquidated damages amounting to 120 ten thousand yuan.
