==Overview==
Established after the [[Fourth Succession War]] to aid [[McCarron's Armored Cavalry]] in rebuilding its damaged forces. '''McCarron's Trading Company''', aka MTC, Inc, was formed when [[Archibald McCarron]] created a series of trading companies across the [[Inner Sphere]] that would buy and sell goods/services to any interested party. The primary objective of this company is to provide new technology and supplies to the [[Big Mac]].<ref name="BigMac10"/> This was decisive during the [[Andurien Secession]] wherein the rapidly rebuilt Big Mac repelled the invaders.<ref>''Brush Wars'', p. 51</ref> MTC's shipping yards and warehouses would years later suffer heavy damage from the [[Federated Commonwealth]]'s retaliatory attack for the unit's raids during the [[War of 3039]].<ref name=HWo39-128>''Historical: War of 3039'', pp. 128–129: "Countering the Big Mac - Menke (August-September)"</ref>

The company will not do business with the [[Federated Suns]] directly but will hire middlemen to facilitate the exchange.<ref name="BigMac10"/>

Originally limited to the production of [[House McCarron|McCarron family]] owned [[Menke Armor and Armaments]]<ref name=HBHLp135>''Handbook: House Liao'', p. 135: "Mujika Aerospace Company Profile"</ref> to trade with, the [[3060]] investiture of [[Menke]] and [[Mitchel]] to Lord [[Marcus Baxter]] saw a massive expansion of MTC, Inc's resources. Now having access to all of Menke's production facilities, including [[StarCorps Industries]]' ''[[Emperor]]'' BattleMech, McCarron's Trading Company can now trade for any BattleMech produced in the Inner Sphere.<ref name="FM:CC86">''Field Manual: Capellan Confederation'', p. 86</ref><ref name="FM:CC128">''Field Manual: Capellan Confederation'', p. 128</ref>

Sometime during or likely after the [[Jihad]], the Trading Company obtained the technical knowledge on [[Marauder II#Variants|MAD-4L ''Marauder II'']] manufacture.<ref name="RS3145NTNUp7">''Record Sheets: 3145 New Tech, New Upgrades'', p. 7: "Marauder II MAD-4L"</ref> Finally fulfilling the generations-long McCarron dream of producing their own Battlemechs. One assumes family owned Menke Armor and Armament now has this ability.
