Refined Mills orders "Grade A" oats from Sweet Farms to grind and sell to Town Grocery. Sweet ships "Grade B" grain, which Refined accepts. To recover damages for the nonconformity, Refined must give notice of the breach within a reasonable time to ___.

The correct word for the blank space is: Sweet Valley.

Explanation:

Even if Refined Mills accepted the "Grade B" oats from Sweet Valley, the latter breached their initial contract since originally Refined Mills requested "Grade A" oats. Then, Refined Mills can suit Sweet Valley for nonconformity damages but they should let Sweet Valley know about this within a reasonable time.
