Production and Distribution
The company prides itself on timely delivery of freshly cultivated fruit, vegetables, and livestock produce from the moon colony of Shade, and farms around Albion. To this end, One-Stop specialises in refrigerated storage and distribution, paying dividends to farmers to grow for them, managed hands-on by accounts teams. Perishable produce is on the shelves or at the relevant factory within 24 hours of being picked and cleaned, and on a shelf in one of the many supermarkets or corner stores around the Aleph Cluster within 48 hours.
In its Spaceship design area, One-Stop has a mining holding on Donalbain, mining minerals and sending them to refineries on Albion and Sargasso, creating the materials and parts necessary to assemble a spacecraft. Once fabricated, the items are sent to space factories to create new spacecraft, and the finished products are sold on planetside or spaceport shipyards.
One-Stop has an avid recycling component, believing that nothing should go to waste with their products, organic and otherwise. They are responsible for lobbying for both biodegradable (where possible) and sustainable recycling practices in food and spacecraft parts. In particular within the Unity Protocol, One-Stop works openly alongside the Units to ensure nothing goes to waste.
In addition to making their own produce and parts, One-Stop is willing to work with other producers to let their products into the market, reselling their goods throughout the Aleph Cluster.
Marketing
One-Stop prefers a high-intensity, high exposure marketing ethos, being noted for using bold colours. For high-end foodstuff brands, One-Stop is often able to wrangle celebrity endorsement from sports stars or high-profile actors. For the spaceships and middle-range foodstufs, less sophisticated and cruder marketing is employed. The company is notorious for incorporating loud, in-your-face advertising commonly referred to as 'shouty ads'2). Despite the brashness in this form of advertising, it finds traction among the target Greaseheart audience.
In its colouring, One-Stop uses red and gold, with black-and-white chequered flag patterns. Racing stripes are also a common motif, in addition to metal paints, and loud voices.
