  Tropicana Products, Inc.
Tropicana Products was headquartered in Bradenton, Florida, from 1949 (two years after the firm's founding) to 2004, when PepsiCo management shifted the head office to Chicago, the home of the PepsiCo Beverages & Foods North America division.
Tropicana gained the initial upper hand, and by 1993 had extended its lead in the overall orange juice market to a somewhat comfortable 30.1 percent to 25.9 percent.
In early 2000 Tropicana announced that it would increase its fleet of refrigerated railcars to more than 400, and that their orange color would gradually be phased out in favor of a return to the original white for the sake of cooling efficiency.

 The proof is in the orange juice
Tropicana's strategy for presenting its orange juice as a functional food exemplifies the type of scientific support needed for all such products.
Tropicana, which is owned by food-and-beverage giant PepsiCo, has been successful in its approach, which bears a striking resemblance to the marketing plans followed by major pharmaceutical companies.
It required submitting its product to clinical research to prove that an ingredient in its product actually accomplished in humans what was suggested by earlier research.

 Ocean Spray v Pespi
Nevertheless, in July 1998, four months after executing the new distribution agreement with Ocean Spray, Pepsi announced that it was purchasing Tropicana Products, Inc. ("Tropicana"), a leading producer of juices and a major competitor of Ocean Spray, especially in the supply of single-serve containers of orange juice.
Ocean Spray seizes on this (occasionally hedged) concession to argue that the only remaining issue is irreparable injury; it assumes that the equities are favorable to it (Pepsi's breach being deliberate), and that the public interest is served by forcing businesses to adhere to their contracts.
Tropicana is a leading competitor, and the effect of so drastic a solution would be greatly to benefit Ocean Spray by undercutting competition from Tropicana that existed long before the acquisition was a twinkle in Pepsi's eye.

The staff also recognizes that there is scientific evidence suggesting that diets containing foods rich in potassium and low in sodium such as orange juice may reduce the risk of high blood pressure and stroke and that the FDA has authorized a general health claim based upon this evidence.
