History
iKytec started as a insignificant, family business back in 725 A.S. It began with the father, Lincon Whittic and the eldest son, Bradley Whittic, with a crew going from its origin planet of Manhattan to other parts of the New York system. It would be easy and safe work, visiting numerous bases and Pittsburgh for small handfuls of money to keep them on their feet. They started with the classic and most rugged of container ships, a Rhino - EL-HiL27 Freighter which was the only vessel at their command. A few years moved by and business became good as contracts grew ever so slowly. In 734 A.S. they bought a second Rhino - EL-HiL27 Freighter which was commanded by the son, Bradley Whittic. They gained the access codes to California and Colorado and swapped their old Rhino's for the much more economic Gull - CT-49X shipping containers.
Competition became tough as they began to transport much more expensive loads. In time, the family fleet grew and they began to hire people to transport with them. Advanced companies like Ageira began to show interest in the business and its progress as they began to make a name for themselves in the yearly days of 745 A.S. Later on in the same year, the father, Lincon Whittic, passed away and his son, Bradley Whittic took the reins. He invested in new transports like the Heron - CT-53 and new crews. He also established the Security division which firmly divided the family business into two leagues. The prospect of good money for just babysitting container ships within the confinements of Liberty was a welcome to many young adults.
iKytec began to make a name for themselves and masses of shares were bought into the company. They expanded into the house of Bretonia and its border worlds in 776 A.S. and later on into Kusari and Rheinland. The ships that did start the company was minuscule to what it became in the years of 780 A.S, Stork super transports and well armoured Eagles quickly became the unofficial icon of iKytec. Interspace Commerce took a very keen interest in iKytec, much more than the other major corporations. They decided to buy iKytec from the Wittic family and run iKytec as a sub division from their own. Many were put off by the idea of this but the family accepted the offer and it’s still coordinated and partially run by the family still but IC controls a large proportion of what happens within the company and how things are run.
