Lerrimore Contracting Company


Description


Lerrimore Contracting Company was a manufacturing company that produced household appliances, goods, and furniture, including the industrial glow rod, and owned over three hundred subsidiaries. Its logo was a skewed orange hexagon with a green border behind a horizontally aligned rectangle that was white and also had a green border. The rectangle featured a green jagged line that traveled from the bottom left corner to the top left corner, then diagonally across to the bottom right corner, and finally to the top right corner. The company shared its name with the droid manufacturer Lerrimore Droids.

History


The company provided funds, equipment, and services equivalent to a total of fifty trillion credits in order to become one of numerous original contributing sponsors of the Corporate Sector Authority. In return, it received nominal discounts on bulk goods and raw materials produced by the sector as well as a proportional share of Corporate Sector profits. The company would, by around 10 ABY, be upgraded to a voting sponsor, receiving increased profits and discounts as well as unrestricted access to the employees of the Authority.
