Victoria Laundry (Windsor) Ltd v Newman Industries Ltd [1949] 2 KB 528 is an English contract law case on the remoteness of damage principle.

Newman Industries Ltd was meant to deliver a boiler for Victoria Laundry (Windsor) Ltd.

The question was whether it could also claim the extraordinary profit it would have made, had it been able to take advantage of the lucrative Ministry of Supply contract.

Asquith LJ in the Court of Appeal held that Newman Industries only had to compensate for the ordinary, not the extraordinary loss of profits.

Lord Asquith commented further that a rule whereby the party in default granted "a complete indemnity for all loss de facto resulting from a particular breach, however improbable or however unpredictable [would be] in contract at least ... too harsh a rule".
