>>19944669May I answer here? A bit more of a private environment.
Extremely simplified: The company buys your stuff, and is allowed to store it and sell it to those you already have established trading relations with.
>>19944372>delivery serviceNot exactly but something along those lines.
>>19944641Ideally, I would like to gain exclusive shipping rights to certain locations
e.g, Only company ships are allowed to carry milk to nasa, but asking for that may be too much right now, unless infinity is feeling particularly generous.
How would it benefit the company? Already established large trading fleet, storage units, and legions of employees and tons of capital would likely allow the company to carry out trading with higher cost-efficiency from national trading fleets. This cost-efficiency is profits to the company.
For the nation of infinity? No need to invest capital into building and maintaining ocean-worthy trading fleets. All those resources could be used to build more ironclads, infrastructure on the home island, or perhaps funneled into funding certain large projects. Simply, you save money.
Furthermore, it's a lower risk. The company ships pay you for your goods at you home ports, so you will not risk losing profits whenever a ship is lost to the seas or pirates, or enemies of infinity.
Most importantly, this would be a good start for further economic cooperation between the nation of infinity and the Chronobanks Company
& its partners. Perhaps even, if a need arises, some private funding for large industrial or infrastructural projects could be negotiated in the future.
Its a very low-risk venture for both parties, with potential for mutual profit. Please consider it, I'm personally looking forward to cooperating with infinity.
