NANICS is a privately owned Corporation founded in 2899 by the former head of the UEE Trade and Development Division & UEE Department of Transportation & Exploration – Keanu Ochoa. After he was thrown out of the UEE due to insuperable dissents in regards of how the problem of increasing numbers of smugglers should be countered with, he decided to establish a small trading company in an ‘outer world’ System – Bremen. This company hugely profited from his information about the whole UEE trading and Transportation network. NANICS was able, thanks to confidential information about the UEE that Ochoa was able to obtain before he had to leave, identifying major trade lanes and those that were not highly frequented but extremely profitable. He sold this information to traders and made a fortune with information selling and trading.
Offering an excellent base provided by the knowledge of his years of service in the United Earth Empire the leadership of NANICS managed to build up and opened the first trading hubs in the year 2901 located in several economic zones. To the public, NANICS was a well-known freight hauler in the outer systems. Today, the network spans over more than 30 systems in the UEE territory.
By 2906, rumors spread that the company was not solely active in trading and selling inside information about trade developments. The name NANICS was suddenly infamously named a smugglers’ nest and that the given information about trades was only a small part of what Ochoa knew about the UEE. People believed that the inside information were used to determine areas with low security levels to optimize black market trades and bootlegging. No solid information about a secret NANICS business where ever found so it is still unknown if this part is true or not. NANICS itself does not officially take a stand on these rumors as per our understanding it is not necessary to add fuel to egregious assumptions. NANICS will not sacrifice reputation and quality for short-term gain.
