A Seattle company has sued Albertsons, alleging the grocery chain operated in bad faith by inducing it to develop an innovative e-commerce platform that it ultimately stole before suddenly terminating their partnership agreement.
Replenium, represented by Lawrence Locker and Rebecca Singleton of Summit Law Group and Jason Spiro of Spiro Harrison & Nelson, filed the complaint Monday in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington in Seattle. It seeks to recover losses suffered due to Albertsons’ alleged misappropriation of trade secrets, breach of contract, unfulfilled promises and unjust enrichment. Summit Law Group did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
