MAP Pricing
True Dogs, LLC recognizes that our success is tied to the success of our authorized retailers. We also know with the growth of ecommerce it has become harder for brick and mortar stores to compete. In acknowledgement of this as well as protecting our brands we discourage extensive price-based advertising that can lead to brand degradation and as a result, True Dogs, LLC has unilaterally established this Minimum Advertised Price (“MAP”) Policy.
2. Policy Statement
True Dogs, LLC, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to discontinue doing business with any reseller that advertises any product(s) covered by this MAP Policy at a price lower than the MAP.
3. General Guidelines

Similarly, True Dogs, LLC will exercise its right to make its own decisions regarding the True Dogs, LLC Authorized Reseller Program, (“SARP”) supplemental marketing materials, point-of-purchase displays, product allocation, new product availability, or future promotional, joint marketing, or sponsorship programs.
The MAP Policy applies to advertised prices, not the price at which MAP Products are actually sold or offered for sale to an individual in-store or over the telephone.
SodaPup believes in maintaining a fair and reasonable marketplace for all its authorized resellers.
