General Products is a Galaxy-wide trading company owned and operated by Puppeteers. Their best known product is their range of space-craft hulls - GP Hull.[1]
The Puppeteers' renown for honesty in trading allowed the species to accumulate this expansive mercantile empire. Since the human Bronze Age, the Puppeteers have ruled this empire including every race in the 60 light year sphere of Known Space.
They went out of business in Known Space after the Puppeteers emigrated to unknown parts.[1] After the Puppeteer Exodus, it was rumored that General Products is a front for Gregory Pelton[2].
