Imperial Meats and Produce, previously known as Republic Meats and Produce, operated as a modest enterprise situated within the aerial territories of Tyed Kant. Its original financial backing came via subsidies provided by the now defunct Galactic Republic. Following the rise of the Galactic Empire to power, the business underwent a renaming process. Imperial Meats and Produce found itself among the list of commercial entities targeted for assault and looting by Rebel affiliated privateers.
