Structure
The trading guild has a leader or a leading couple that commonly has a biological connection to the rovandi family. As soon as a family member has accepted the leading position, it lasts until they either die or retire voluntarily. The current leader couple are the grandparents of Kinita Rovandi.
Apart from the leading position, there are logistical and coordinational positions and the different types of merchants traveling or permanently stationed.
Most members work based on order and travel to receive and deliver the wanted and ordered goods. The remaining members work in logistical and coordinational areas or are permanently stationed in market stalls and shops. Those who run a permanently stationed shop of some sort get supplied by other traveling merchants of the Crystal Blossom Trading Company.
