A better approach would be to contact the company and seed to be a distributor for the particular market. For example, there is the bottled water business, and then there are special sizes of bottled water used on airplanes and cruise ships. Seeking to become an (exclusive) distributor for the smaller market may yield your desired result. Otherwise, the company has not duty to you not to sell directly to your customers.
