We have an offer for you that is to good to be true.
Here at the Liberty Police Inc. we have our own brand of Coffee, it's name is Sunbucks. It has been around for many years now and is a very large organisation within Liberty with over one hundred stores house wide. About a year ago now we also commissioned a mobile fleet of shops which serve coffee, doughnuts and other light snacks and essentials.
Today we are offering you the chance to taste the delights of Sunbucks own delights, we are requesting permission for our mobile shops to enter your space and sell our products. Of course you would be getting some of the income, say 20% of each sale?
I am sure it is difficult for hard workers such as your miners to get good food and drink whilst working, now is your chance to get it delivered and get a profit!
I hope to hear your decision soon.

Greetings sir,
Your request to resell your products at IMG public bases is granted. These bases include: Freeport four, Outpost Holman, Freistadt (although I could forsee trouble with you folk entering Rheinland space, docking rights can only be granted if you are permitted entry by the Rheinland authorities), and the Hood (possibly a good prospect in case you wish to serve your products during race events).
Also, if you wish to resell coffee at Java, feel free to. Nerves are often frayed at Java, and some good coffee could help. But mind the Maltans. They don't like coffee I think, not without one or two Cardamine lumps.
Regards,
- Johnathan Sanders, on behalf of the Independant Miners Guild

From a time when all seems lost, from a dead man to a world, without restraint, unafraid and free.

Thank you very much, I'll be dispatching vessels to those locations very soon. Well, all but one, I am having trouble with the Rheinland authorities as expected. But we shall see how it goes and if not we shall have a mobile shop set up in Omega 3.

Subject: Coffee Delivery
Greetings, my good Mr. Shaw, from the Independent Communist Miners' Guild.
The ICMG is currently experiencing an unfortunate period of relative financial... of less growth than would be optimal. It has been a trying time for all of us recently, and I believe that some proper coffee would cheer the men right up! You're welcome to stop by Java or Pecos any time. As well, a delivery of enough coffee to last 500 men and women at least a month could be possible, for our colony ship, the ICMG Lollingite, is currently running low on supplies. If the Rheinland authorities permit you entrance to Rheinland for the purpose of supplying Freistadt, and our assets based from there, (which I sincerely doubt they will, but who knows?,) then you would be a most welcome sight. If not, we can always send our own vessels into Liberty space, and go the long way around through Bretonia and the Omegas.
You've no idea how welcome a warm cup of coffee can be for a miner.
