SpheRonald's

SpheRonald's is one of the foremost non-prestige food joints (primitively known as fast foods, though that designation is now meaningless) in the Inner Sphere.

Beginnings
Originally founded for Terra as a way to get cheap meat abroad. The newly colonized planets offered a near unlimited supply of underpopulated green pastures, for some reason. However, this first business model wasn't very sucessful. The people of Earth were already accustomed to the flavor and texture of vat meat (cellular aggregates) and despised natural beef (though obviously harvested from many cloned cows and bulls, made from select genetically modified subspecies). Also, though there was much space for meat development in the old way, SpheRonald's found that transportation costs to Earth offset the production savings. This combined with Earthling's acquired tastes nearly spawned the death of the franchise.

Retooling
Instead of giving up, SpheRonald's retooled itself to serve the planets of the Inner Sphere themselves, Though much less populated compared to humanity's home planet, food joints were then near-unexistent and SpheRonald's made its own niche in a vast, practically untapped market. Also, by providing portable yet tasty meals to MechWarriors, with state-of-the-art food conservatives, SpheRonald's created their own good terms with the rising noble houses abroad and its teeming warrior-aristocracy.

Corporate Conflict
TBD.
