PORTLAND, Ore. — Kraft Foods Inc. took a blow Friday in its fight to keep Starbucks Corp. from ending its distribution partnership with the food company.
A U.S. District Court judge denied Kraft’s request for a preliminary injunction, which would have stopped Starbucks from unilaterally ending its distribution partnership with Kraft before the end of arbitration that is still under way and not affected by the court’s decision Friday. Kraft said it intends to appeal the decision.
