Considered the backbone of the [[Aurigan Reach]], the '''Gwendor-Dorwinion Cartel''' was the leading [[JumpShip]] operator in the [[Aurigan Coalition]] as of [[3026]].<ref name=HA:TACp22>''House Arano (The Aurigan Coalition)'', p. 22, "Socioeconomics - Corporate Profiles"</ref> (In fact, the acknowledged scarcity of JumpShips in the region<ref>The Aurigan Reach was described as "starved" for JumpShips, ''House Arano (The Aurigan Coalition)'', p. 25</ref> and the concept of being a [[w:cartel|cartel]] suggest a regional monopoly; see [[#Notes|Notes]] below.)

==Overview==
 
==Overview==
Originally founded as '''Gwendor Inc.''', the then-[[Magistracy of Canopus]] company specialized in the shipment of exquisite wines and other luxury goods across known space. As the [[LosTech|technological decline]] of the [[Third Succession War]] dragged on, the company increasingly found that their JumpShips were by far their most valuable asset. They switched their business model to interstellar travel and merged with another small mercantile enterprise to form the Gwendor-Dorwinion Cartel. The resulting cartel coordinates the operations of several JumpShips, most of which the cartel co-owns.

When the [[Aurigan Trade Partnership]] was founded in [[2870]], the vessels of the Gwendor-Dorwinion Cartel formed its backbone, revitalizing trade in the Reach. Gwendor-Dorwinion refurbished a maintenance slip for its JumpShip fleet at [[Mechdur]] and thus established a basic infrastructure for regular JumpShip traffic in the region.<ref name=HA:TACp22/>

==Notes==
 
*A cartel, by definition, comprises of several independent participants who would otherwise be rivals or competitors. This suggests that Gwendor Inc. remains a distinct corporate entity even though they might dominate the cartel. It was not specified what other entities the cartel includes; the name suggests a prominent connection to Dorwinion on [[Belladonna]]. (Note that the well-known [[Cal-Boeing of Dorwinion]] enterprise would have no part in this though, as it was only created in [[2899]] through an amiable split from their parent company on [[Galax]].)
