[Wildkins]

Background

Synth Foods, Incorporated is a privately-owned corporation conducting its operations throughout all of Sirius. Primarily tasked with the production of foodstuffs, they are also responsible for shiping their products throughout the many inhabited worlds.

Synth Foods, Incorporated is well known for their revolutionary BioDome™ technology. These facilities have been installed on hundreds of stations throughout the sector. Synth Foods’ paste and gel products, available in numerous flavors, are unparalleled in cost effectiveness, product quality, and costumer satisfaction.

Synth Foods, Incorporated is headquartered on Planet Manhattan, New York, however it has branched itself out since its foundation, no longer recognizing itself as a purely Libertonian Corporation. Synth Foods also recently bought Rivserside Station in the orbit of Mohave, California, from Liberty Police, Incorporated. In addition to that, this company also owns much of Planet Stuttgart and a portion of the Bounty Hunters Guild's Deshima Station in Shikoku.

Synth Foods, Incorporated proudly feeds the mouths of Sirius, and works with government welfare programs to nourish the less fortunate. Fifty percent of profits are donated to charities across the four houses. Synth is also in a partnership with Planetform, Incorporated to develop newer worlds for the people of Sirius.
