Falger Mining Company is a company based on Aliso which operates and oversees mining facilities and facilitates the trading and selling of raw materials. Founded in 38 ABY by Khryso Mallus, the company's day-to-day operations are run by Sallo Wur out of its office in Aliso City. The company is still fledgling but is in a state of rapid growth as it seeks to secure a foothold in the Alisoan economy. With ambitions to one day be a tent-pole of commerce in the system, the company's drive to expand is strong.
History
Formation
In early 38 ABY, Khryso Mallus, a Sith of Clan Plagueis, was looking for a way to raise his net worth. The pay he received for his work with the Clan was easily enough to support him, but he had designs for a much more opulent lifestyle that would require more capital. So, after brainstorming and researching what kinds of options were available to him, the Sith came across an older, but still functioning, mining facility that was being sold off. Deciding this was as good a place as any to start, Khryso bought the facility. Despite his aspirations, the Chiss was not particularly versed in the ways of business and he didn't have the time to run the facility himself. Allowing the supervisor of the mine to continue overseeing its operation, Khryso sought out someone who could help him make the mine profitable.
Reaching out to some of his contacts in the Clan, Khryso requested assistance in searching out someone who could help him run the mine profitably. Several names and candidates passed over his desk and Khryso interviewed a handful of them before settling on a Skakoan businessman by the name of Sallo Wur. Sallo accepted the position and the two began working together to make the mine a success. With the goal of expansion on the horizon, Sallo advised Khryso that forming a company that could manage the mine and its business was a good idea. So, Khryso pulled together what resources he could and created Falger Mining Company, named after Tim Falger, the man who had helped care for his mother after his father had died.
Over the course of the next few weeks, Sallo and Khryso worked to put the company's infrastructure into place and make it operational. Khryso named Sallo the Administrator of the company, allowing the Skakoan to run the day-to-day minutiae of the business, leaving Khryso more time for his work with Plagueis. Together, they secured their first client and Falger Mining Company was off to a great start.
Humble Beginnings
The first mining facility under the company's ownership was dubbed the "Aliso Coastal Mine". It worked well enough, with most of its previous staff having stayed on. Khryso allocated enough funds to the company to allow them to begin buying slaves to replace missing workers, but there was a reason the mine had been on the market. It produced results, but took its time. Turning a profit would not be easy with this facility alone. Nonetheless, Sallo was able to continue bringing clients in with varying degrees of success and the company was slowly moving towards being in the black. Sallo purchased a small office in Aliso City from which he could run the business without having to be at its more remote location. Despite the slow roll of those first couple months, Khryso was feeling positive about the company and still held regular meetings with Sallo.
In mid-38 ABY Khryso, having recently dug up some personal history, focused his attention heavily on the company to distract himself. It was during this time that he bought a second facility, the Aliso Deepsea Mine. This facility was even more remote than the first, however, it's higher price was reflected in its higher production power. It was roughly the same size as the first facility, but its more advanced design and technology made it much more efficient. The purchase of this second facility prompted a small boom in progress, securing more contracts and, although none of them were particularly big, moving the company even closer to being in the black. With Khryso now stationed on Aliso, he was able to work more closely with Sallo over the next few months until, eventually, they managed to secure their biggest and most significant client yet: the Valneikian hive.
The new relationship with the hive and Khryso's subsequent promotion to Aedile of House Tyranus had things looking up for the company as it broke even for the first week since its formation. His new responsibilities forced Khryso to once again step back from heavy involvement in the company, but Sallo continued forging ahead, hoping to capitalize on the success that they were experiencing.
Properties
Aliso City Office
A small office located in Aliso City in which the Administrator works alongside his support staff to run and maintain the business side of the company. It is here that any important business meetings, customer deals, or accounting would go down. This office is located in a central downtown area and is easily accessible to most if they know where to look. It is part of a larger office building that holds many other small units within it.
Aliso Coastal Mine
A doonium mine that is off the coast of Aliso's primary continent. Most of the mine is underwater and it is fully self-sufficient and capable of independent operation. A mixture of members of the Willing, mining droids, and some slaves work in the mine facility extracting and processing doonium which is then sold through Falger Mining Company. Direct management of the mine is left to the Supervisor, a Weequay named Kurrokk Glersi and his staff.
Aliso Deepsea Mine
A doonium mine several hundred kilometers from the coast, this facility is rooted firmly on the seafloor and is accessible via a turbolift tower and submarine. It is a fully self-sufficient facility and capable of independent operation. The mine is mostly staffed by droids and slaves, with a few members of the Willing working in management and logistics. It's primary product is doonium, which it mines from Aliso's crust and is managed through Falger Mining Company. Direct management of the mine is left to the Supervisor, a human named Arriadon Sheddir and her staff.
Personnel
Administrator Sallo Wur
The Administrator of Falger Mining Company is a male Skakoan by the name of Sallo Wur. An upstanding member of the Plagueis Willing, Sallo was selected after a somewhat brief but invasive search by Khryso and his associates. He was selected for his no-nonsense approach to the job, wanting only to keep the business running at peak efficiency without being overly ambitious or inventive. He also had some experience in the business sector that would be vital to keeping the company afloat, given Khryso's lack of experience in that area. Sallo also brought his own network of contacts and associates along with him to help get Falger Mining Company off the ground. Khryso leaves most of the day-to-day decision making to Sallo while the Administrator will contact the Sith should any major decisions or conflicts need to be dealt with.
Supervisor Kurrokk Glersi
Kurrokk Glersi is the current Supervisor of the Aliso Coastal Mine. A male Weequay, he has brown, leathery skin and deep-set black eyes. He has a larger build, a mixture of fat and muscle that gives him an imposing frame. He has been operating the Aliso Coastal Mine for over a decade and working within it since his young adulthood twenty years prior. The mine has passed through several hands as it is bought and sold by interested parties, but Glersi has never paid much mind to who hands down the orders. He is more than adequate in his role of managing the mine and is able to produce just enough raw material to keep it from going under. He isn't much of an intellectual, but his years working in the facility has given him experience, knowledge, and intuition that has allowed him to earn the respect of his subordinates. He prefers to work with living people over droids, and has formed relationships with many of the mine's workers due to his long-standing presence there. He is hesitant to replace them with the droids or slaves the Company has assigned to him and will more often than note look out for the well-being of his employees before the efficiency of the mine. That being said, he avoids arguments or clashes with the upper management of the company, not wanting to give them a reason to fire him.
Supervisor Arriadon Sheddir
Arriadon Sheddir is a young, ambitious human woman who wanted to make a name for herself. Her father worked hard in menial labor, earning himself a weakened body and strained mind as he enters his senior years, and she would like to avoid that fate entirely. Not long after acquiring degrees in engineering and business, she was hired by Sallo Wur to manage the newly acquired Aliso Deepsea Mine. She will do whatever it takes to make the mine operate efficiently and without flaw, hoping to move up to a more lucrative and secure position in short order. She is not from Aliso, so while she is less familiar with Clan Plagueis than most, she is working hard to make a name for herself and earn a comfortable life for her and her family.
