In an action alleging nonpayment for shipments of sweetener, the district court’s denial of defendant’s motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction is affirmed where defendant “transacted business” in Georgia, under Georgia law, because it sent purchase orders to plaintiff in Georgia, requested delivery by “customer pickup” at plaintiff’s plant in Georgia, directed third parties to accept delivery of the goods in Georgia, took legal title to the goods in Georgia, and promised to pay money into Georgia on the two transactions in question.
