SoroSuub Corporation

SoroSuub Corporation was a Sullust-based company whose tech division developed and manufactured a great variety of technological goods, from droids and sensors to weapons and vehicles. The company was owned by the even larger Commerce Guild, a conglomerate of retailers, arms manufacturers, agricorps, and other service providers. The SoroSuub Corporation was led by Chief Executive Officer Beolars Bribbs by the time of the Separatist Crisis, by which point Bribbs also presented Sullust in the Galactic Senate of the Galactic Republic. However, during the crisis Sullust seceded to the Confederacy of Independent Systems in a process overseen by Bribbs.

During the Clone Wars, SoroSuub's Sullustan Home Guard, led by Admiral Dua Ningo, threw its support behind the armed forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, as part of the Commerce Guild's arrangement, and was charged with defending both the Brema sector and the company's interests. They operated in the Brema sector including Sullust, as well as treaty-linked worlds like Serenno and Mechis III. Following the conflict's end, SoroSuub associated itself with the Galactic Republic's successor, the Galactic Empire.

At the time of the Galactic Civil War, SoroSuub employed about half the population of Sullust. When SoroSuub began to support the Empire, one of its freighter pilots, Nien Nunb, stole from the company on behalf of the Rebellion. The corporation eventually switched their allegiance to the Rebel Alliance, renaming their Stormtrooper One blaster to the Freedom One in support.

The company notably produced the Luxury 3000 space yacht, the Petite Opu-Yacht, the V-35 Courier landspeeder, the Hush-98 comlink, the Quasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier, and the C1 personal comlink.
