Organisation
The company was founded by the Takanara family and is still run by them to this day. They are, however, not the only people working for them and many higher positions in the company are even in the hands of non family members.
After the higher management positions the captains are held in the highest regard in the company. They are well trained, loyal and receive a very good salary. Crew members are also pretty well payed.
At the bottom of the company there are some lower tier management positions for the mining settlements. But the majority of the low income workers for the Cloud Traders exists out of the miners they employ. To the Cloud Traders they are seen as easily replacable assets.
Other Resources
The main income of the Cloud Traders is of course the Falls. However, over time they have expanded the goods they trade. One of the more lucrative items they sell are the clockworks of the
Tenari. Since the Tenari themselves do not have a lot of accessible traderoutes they use the Cloud Traders to sell many of their goods.
Recently the Cloud Traders have also started in trading exotic kinds of wood. They have set up new settlements near the edge of the Mizarin Jungle to gather the wood found there. Especially in richer families this is considered a new must have trend.
The symbol

The symbol which is used by the Raitin shows a Cloud Crystal at the back. This is of course one of the main trade resources of the company. To make the symbol reflect their name somewhat they have addes some clouds to the bottom.
The most peculiar thing is however the use of a purplish Dragon in the center since the Cloud Traders are well known to mistreat Dragons. This is actually meant to represent
The Crystal Dragon, who is revered as a god by the majority of the Raitin.
