Haitian Football Federation (FHF), $1 Million contract with Colombian SAETA

In a breach of contract, SAETA has made excuses their inventory dried up and therefore it was unable to outfit Les Grenadiers for the two exposition games they played against Spain and Italy. But where is the money SAETA contracted to give HFF?
In another mix-up, SAETA is calling sports retailers to get enough inventory back, so they can outfit Les Grenadiers in time for the Gold Cup in July. It gets worse. SAETA is planning to put Les Grenadiers' uniforms on sale just before the Gold Cup. They want to increase sales figures, knowing eager fans will be thronging sports centers in the U.S, trying to get their hands on the discounted items.
HFF's Executive Committee is remaining silent on the sponsorship signing, while Jean-Bart is publicly speaking about it. It is obvious SAETA has breached the terms of the agreement. What HFF needs to do is break the contract. They have sponsorships with Digicel and SogeXpress, and they can bide their time until they find another sponsor more responsible.
