Snugglé are a food, beverage and agricultural business conglomerate. Originally founded in the Balle neutral trading zone from the shells of several other food concerns following the Great Protein Crisis of 2771, Snugglé expanded over the years and, following several large scale leveraged buy-outs, are the largest such company in the galaxy today. Although originally a producer of human and ausar food, a desire to be competitive in as many markets as possible has led Snugglé’s expansion into producing a wide variety of nutrition, and their logo is recognizable on almost any shop shelf in the galaxy. One of the pioneers of corporate planet purchasing - partially because they were one of the few original companies with the assets to accomplish such a thing - Snugglé own 41 agri-worlds today, many of them terraformed specifically to provide maximal output. This vast source of home-grown produce provides them with an unprecedented market advantage within the U.G.C. The labor laws on these planets and other out-sourced Snugglé installations have drawn much criticism, however the company have made efforts to offset this with their commitment to prisoner rehabilitation and native outreach schemes.
