Nashan Diversified - A interstellar multi-division corporation headquarters on House Steiner world of Donegal.
Contents
Overview
Founded officially in 2795, the corporation was originally named Ns-Shan Computer Tracking Company. As Ns-Shan, the computer manufacturer was aggressive in selling its quality computers beneath the competition's prices. By 2795 it had 30% of Lyran market and it formally changed its name. The company began to buy up smaller companies to build itself up in dawn of the First Succession War.
By 3067, the company had become a multi-division corporation, with a number of smaller companies as Divisions, including Gulf Breeze Mining Union. It made corporate partnerships with Defiance Industries which allowed them to open up three additional divisions in military hardware. The Nashan was considered at the time, one House Steiner's largest corporations. They were known for producing wide range of products from Pharmaceuticals to WorkMechs.
The organization was infamous for its ultra elite security force known as the Black Guard.[1]
After the Clan Invasion, Nashan Shipping was hiring mercenary forces to guard their DropShips and JumpShips. Later investigations found that Nashan used some of these mercenary forces to deliver supplies to resistance cells operating in the Clan Occupation Zones.[2]
