About Skadi Nutrition Systems

Since YE 44, both the Ryu Keiretsu and Fujiko Development Corporation have been mass producing artificial nepleslian clones such as the Lily Type Artificial Nepleslian to meet a variety of needs. With this significant population boom, Alexis Wood of Nepleslian Research and Manufacturing quickly saw an opportunity to dominate local food markets and potentially branch out into broader markets. To achieve this, she spun off the Skadi Group, originally part of the Medical Division, into an independent company: Skadi Nutrition Systems.

The previous mandate for the Skadi Group was the development of a means of supporting the nutritional needs of surviving Nepleslian Reds in YE 29 from Kennewes and future clones to replace those that were lost in fighting. Their solution to the problem was NutriBites, a basic but efficient means of producing food. Since then the Skadi Group has been solely focused on refining their BSP-derived food products to address complaints regarding their bland and uninspired flavorss.

Headquarters

Skadi Nutrition Systems established its headquarters at Port Dongfeng, leveraging the FDC's management of the area and the local culture's passion for food. The headquarters is managed by Sigrid Ahn, who oversees both production and research and development (R&D) to maintain strict quality control standards.

Facilities

Skadi Nutrition Systems maintains several key facilities across Nepleslian-controlled territories:

  • Port Dongfeng Production Center: The central hub for all eastern BSP food production, capable of producing high volumes of SKN products for both military and civilian use.
  • Red Sands City Production Center: While in a location plagued by gang violence, the Red Sands Production Center is the original site used for the production of BSP based foodstuff. It is once responsible for the majority of BSP production within the Fujiko Region.
  • Ukmirt Research Outpost: A research facility dedicated to the development of new BSP-based foodstuff, flavors, textures, and innovative products, as well as exploring non-food applications of BSPs.
  • Logistics and Distribution Hub at Fujiko: This facility focuses on the packaging, storage, and distribution of SKN products within the Fujiko Region.

Structure

Skadi Nutrition Systems is divided into three main divisions:

  • Production Division: Responsible for cultivating microorganisms, harvesting BSPs, and processing them into food products. Led by Erik Kazama.
  • Research and Development (R&D) Division: Focuses on improving BSP yields, acquiring and optimizing microorganisms, and developing new flavors and product types. Led by Reiko Thorn.
  • Logistics Division: Oversees distribution, inventory management, and delivery of SKN products to local and remote regions. Led by Bjorn Lee.
