Retail Caucus

The Retail Caucus was a corporate entity that existed during the final years of the Galactic Republic, and was based on the planet Kerkoidia. A wealthy, but smaller organization that competed with the likes of the Commerce Guild and the Corporate Alliance, the Caucus was nonetheless considered a powerful megacorporation. It was one of the myriad corporate entities attracted into the command structure of the Confederacy of Independent Systems by Count Dooku's promises of unlimited pursuit of profits. Like its fellow corporations, the Retail Caucus reinforced the Confederacy's growing military with its private droid army, which included its distinctive LR-57 combat/retail droids. The Retail Caucus also used a unit of Kerkoiden warriors to protect its warehouses. The Separatist army that fought in the Battle of Malastare included LR-57 combat droids.
