Overview

Description

Liberty Trade Shipping is a new corporation founded by former employees of Interspace Commerce, as result of their grievances related to the policy promoted by the leaders of this company. They accuse Interspace Commerce that has become a too corrupt corporation, with dubious connections, which no longer represent the true interests of the Republic of Liberty, being concerned only by their own interests. In contrast with Interspace Commerce, not having yet the necessary financial resources, Liberty Trade Shipping does not provide banking services. However, this corporation is focused to dominate the market of shipping services. For this reason, Liberty Trade Shipping has decided to begin an aggresive campaign in order to become the main competitor of Interspace Commerce, especially in Kusari, Bretonia and Liberty.

As a first step in her ascension, Liberty Trade Shipping corporation has begun to provide shipping services in Kusari, desiring to dominate Interspace Commerce in this house. With this driving goal at the forefront, the headquarters of Liberty Trade Shipping was constructed in Honshu system and this has proven to be a successful venture for their growth. Also, it is believed that Liberty Trade Shipping have the intention to build a new trade center in Bretonia, in the not so distant future, as a second step in the development plan of this corporation.

With origins in the Republic of Liberty, Liberty Trade Shipping follow a constant line in the battle to avoid involvement in military conflicts between Bretonia and Kusari and to keep their reputation at a high level with local authorities from these two houses. Although they do not have as a priority to establish relationships with corporations from Gallia and Rheinland, is possible to happen in a distant future. According to some rumors, the president of Liberty Trade Shipping corporation, David Leroy, has a personal vision about how can be determined local authorities from all houses, to give more freedoms to lawful traders, even in times of war. He has as example, a similar attempt initiated by a group of Junkers which are now disbanded, known as Deep Trading Consortium. Even if their attempt has failed, he believes that the idea will succeed, if Liberty Trade Shipping will have backing from all major trade corporations.

History

Being newly created, Liberty Trade Shipping does not have a too consistent history. Officially, this corporation was founded in May, 819 A.S. by David Leroy and Rick Tenda. Previously, Rick Tenda was the owner of another company, Liberty Trade and Supply, created with the both sons of David Leroy, Mark and Joe. But later, with the involvement of David, resigned from Interspace Commerce, Liberty Trade and Supply was dissolved and a new one has born: Liberty Trade Shipping. With intense involvement of those two friends, this corporation has registered, in short time, a rapid growth.

In first month, they succeed to gain the trust of Kusari Naval Forces and to bought a station near to Honshu planet, known as Muroto Trade Center, wich has become the headquaters of Liberty Trade Shipping. However, considering that Liberty Trade Shipping has common origins with Interspace Commerce, David and Rick tried to maintain a friendly relationship with all employees of this corporation. Unfortunately, when they asked docking rights on a private station belonging to Interspace Commerce, their request was rejected, and as result, the friendly relationships between these companies have been affected in a negative way. Since then, Liberty Trade Shipping has begun an agresive campaign in order to become the main competitor of Interspace Commerce on the market of shipping services, especially in Kusari, by signing of some contracts with others corporations, like Kishiro Technologies, Samura Heavy Industries or Gateway Shipping Inc. and also attraction of new members.

An important step in the evolution of this company was the acquisition of the "Tau Trade License" from Bretonia Police Authority. Also, the leaders of Liberty Trade Shipping were constantly concerned to obtain docking rights on other private stations, from Kusari and Bretonia. Recently, they started some negotiations with Kusari Naval Forces to receive the permission to use in Kusari space, a new type of ships, known as T-833-GB "Ahoudori" Kusari Explorer, in their Security Division. Also, it is believed that Liberty Trade Shipping have the intention to build a new trade center in Bretonia, in the not so distant future and it seems that the true history of this corporation is written nowadays.
