Silvia Industries, commonly referred to as The Company, was created during the reign of RevengeX Palpatine in 26 ABY. It was originally conceived as a source of income for Acclivis Draco by utilising Antenora’s own natural resources to sell as lumber. It was given a jump-start from finances produced by RevengeX’s apprentice, Kalak Ragnose, from his own company, the Occidus Corporation. In 29 ABY, under the guidance of Quaestor Timbal Palpatine and the rest of the House Summit, the company grew and is now divided into three divisions. The company’s HQ is a large building in the Nazzri system where all administration takes place.


Dendron Lumber Company

Offering several different types of wood, Dendron Lumber Company takes wood directly from Antenora and cuts it into manageable batches in one of five factories, all on Antenora. From there, Verus Transport moves it to the Nazzri system. It is mainly worked by droids assisted by Wookiees.

Holdings:


  • 20 x Large Lumbermills
  • 10 x Warehouses
  • 20 x Cutting Droids

Abor Furniture Ltc.

Wood taken from Dendron Lumber Company is taken to a range of facilities depending on what the wood is. The wood is then shaped and upholstered in a separate building and then sold either in stores, or over the HoloNet.

Holdings:


  • 6 x Production Facilities – Antenora
  • 4 x Upholstering Facilities – Antenora
  • 4 x Storage Ware Houses -Antenora
  • 6 x Storage Ware Houses - Nazzri
  • 3 x Large shops – Empress Teta
  • 1 x Large shop – Judecca
  • 1 x Large shop – Bakura
  • 20 x Small shops – Spread over the Galaxy

Verus Transport

Due to the need to keep the location of Antenora as obscure as possible, Silvia Industries created Verus Transport, a shipping firm that takes lumber and furniture to the Nazzri system. Most contractors collect it from there; however, Abor Furniture maintains a large furniture store on Empress Teta where quality furniture is appreciated, comprising an important market for the company. In more recent months, ships have been loaned to the New Republic from company HQ to assist refugees, for a reduced price naturally. This charitable work is good for the company's image. Since it's foundation, Aedile Kalak Ragnose and Koryn Thraagus have added to the fleet scrapping a Wayfarer transport and using additional funds to purchase to Action class transports.

Holdings:


  • 3 x Wayfarer-class medium transport
  • 1 x Space Master-class medium Transport
  • 1 x Simiyiar-class light freighter
  • 1 x Modified Action VI transport (flagship)
  • 1 x Action V transport

Silvia Industries originally maintained a small security Force of 30 Clone Wars vintage B2 Super Battle Droids spread over company buildings + 2 B2 Super Battle Droids on every transport plus a small force of what could only be described as thugs. Since then, the company's success has allowed for more quality. Twenty BX-series commando droids are the core of the security force, protecting company HQ. The vintage B2's have been distributed among the warehouses and two are assigned as the CEO's bodyguards. Nearly a thousand organic guards are in employment, many taken from Judecca, supporting the Emperor's "Judeccan jobs for Judeccan workers" strategem.

While a lot of the money coming into Antenora is obtained by legal means, a portion of it is less than legal. Silvia Industries maintains a front organization that holds ten casinos on Coruscant and 4 on Nar Shaddaa.


Company Hierarchy

House Summit

Quaestor - Majority stock shareholder: The current Quaestor is given a controlling interest in Silvia Industries when they are appointed in their position. Additionally, they are given controlling interests in the other sub-companies.

Aedile - Secondary majority shareholder: The current Aedile is given a secondary controlling interest in Silvia Industries, outnumbered only by the amount of stock owned by the Quaestor. They are given stock to ensure that the House does not lose their control over the company.
