[edit] History

Prior to the Battle of Naboo the Retail Caucus was largely a financial institution, managing the money and investements of its component companies and relying on the Trade Federation to ship and protect its goods. When Count Dooku approached it for financial banking, the Caucus joined what later would become the Confederacy of Independent Systems. It fronted the credits to fund dozens of battle droids and starship manufacturing plants across the galaxy in exchange for 10% of all produced equipment, as a result becoming a military power almost overnight.[2]

In 22 BBY, during the war, Retail Caucus LR-57 combat droids overran the planet Christophsis under the command of General Whorm Loathsom. They were eventually defeated in combat by the Republic forces sent to liberate the planet.[1]
