Shahmeer is a Seafood Wholesaler. He contracts with Mr. Yang to purchase a new refrigeration unit for his seafood. At the time of contracting he tells Mr. Yang that the changeover from the old refrigeration to the new one must go smoothly because he has ongoing contracts with many restaurants who will buy their seafood elsewhere if there are any problems. The new refrigeration unit is installed and after a few days the unit breaks down and is no longer cooling. Shahmeer loses $20,000 worth of seafood that goes wasted. Shahmeer is also unable to fulfil the orders of the restaurants and they terminate their contracts and he loses a further $200,000 in profit. Shahmeer sues Mr. Yang for damages. Can Shahmeer claim both losses
