Description (Portfolio)[edit]
The company has begun experimenting with producing its own "nanofacturing" technology, whereby its retail store and much of its inventory can be reproduced by a single small unit that can be leased or rented out to interested consumers for their own whim or disposal, and the company would make a profit off of sales of data packages and refills of material tanks.
The company's cartoonish logo of Jupiter king of the gods is almost as familiar in Deneb and Reft as Astroburgers' silver 'A' on an Imperial sunburst, a trend accelerated by a crossmarketing alliance between the two companies. KJ is given to outrageous marketing stunts, a habit encouraged by the self-promoting antics of its famous founder.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Founded in 1141 by Huang Mu-Xing, who named the company after a pun on his own name. King Jupiter started as a department store on Beaxon and was renowned for its low discount prices, ample product lines and ease of shopping and ordering. But the company really took off through aggressive marketing and expansion into grocery (Huang's Club) and small retail (Olympic) fields in Deneb and Reft Sectors during the 1150s and 60s.
