Question: R-P Packaging manufactured cellophane wrapping material that was used by Kerns Bakery in packaging its product. Kerns decided to change its system for packaging cookies

R-P Packaging manufactured cellophane wrapping material that was used by Kern’s Bakery in packaging its product. Kern’s decided to change its system for packaging cookies from a tied bread bag to a tray covered with printed cellophane wrapping. R-P took measurements to determine the appropriate size for the cellophane wrapping and designed the artwork to be printed on the wrapping. After agreeing that the artwork was satisfactory, Kern placed a verbal order for the cellophane at a total cost of $13,000. When the printed wrapping material was received, Kern complained that it was too short for the trays and the artwork was not centered. The material, however, conformed exactly to the order placed by Kern. Kern returned the material to R-P by overnight express. R-P sued Kern. Kern claimed that because there was no written contract, the suit was barred by the statute of frauds. What result? [Flowers Baking Co. v R-P Packaging, Inc., 329 SE2d 462 (Va)]
