Menders (Earth World)

Menders™, also known as Menders Inc., was a company found in iterations of the Mappercraft Minecraft server. It was originally founded by AbolishSuburbs, aka Mich in Earth World Mark VI as a company to sell spare expensive gear and items he had gathered and farmed for while playing on the server. The company has appeared in two renditions of Mappercraft, the previously mentioned Earth World Mark VII and the latest world, Vegatable/Multi Earth World, for the main purpose of selling food items.

Founding (Earth World Mark VI)
By the beginning of Earth World VI, Mich had begun to see his grinding on the server pay off, with him becoming wealthier as time went on. At this time he was still in the Empire of Starymglia and quickly grew to become one of the more richer members of the country, with him increasing his count in diamond blocks, iron, and other valuables. After establishing a secret base far out into the Outer World, he stumbled upon a village one thousand blocks away which contained a Mending villager. This excited Mich, as not only he needed Mending books for a while now to completely max-out his gear, he also grown interest in creating a business to sell enchanted books and other expensive items. Mich would then start Menders™, an informal company unrecognized by the government of Starym, where he would mainly sell Mending books. After discovering AFK fishing farms, he would soon also use those to his own advantage. AFK fishing farms allowed him to grind for enchanted books of all kinds, not just Mending, and got him other items such as saddles, fish, and salmon that he could also sell. Other items he would sold were horse armor, shulker shells and boxes, dragon heads, and elytra. His company would began to formalize, although it never had an official logo or headquarters of the sort, the latter due to Starymglia's refusal to recognize the company officially. Due to Menders™, Mich would begin to become one of the richest players on the Mappercraft server at the time, with him having several stacks of diamond blocks and having a virtual monopoly on Mending enchanted books, shulker boxes, and elytra. Although he did have some competition in the expensive items market, they did not exact undercut his relatively inexpensive prices of the era. After the Second Starym-Araga War and his subsequent arrival into Araga, Menders™ became less relevant as the server became less active.

Decline (post EW6 and EW7)
The end of Earth World Mark VI meant an at-the-time indefinite halt of the Menders™ company. Between the time between October, 2017, and April, 2019, Menders™ had begun being referred to as Menders Inc. in retrospect and began to become some sort of meme in the Mappercraft community. However, by the start of Earth World Mark VII in April, 2019, Menders™ would soon see a revival. This is where Menders™ actually first began to be officially recognized, wherein it became a public company in the Aragan Union. Despite revival though, Menders™ did not see sales as it used to, as the expensive items market it had a monopoly on just one Earth World previous would become very saturated, people had no incentive to buy items they had sold as most had maxed-out gear and stuff of the sort already, and that activity on the server was very low.

Revival (Vegatable/Multi Earth World)
When Mich first moved to Mingren around February, 2020, he began to ponder the idea of reviving Menders™ as a company. However, he wanted to change what he was doing from selling enchanted books, shulkers, etcetera, to other markets like selling food. This was because the enchanted book market had become saturated due to the 1.14 Villager update which made it possible to make extremely inexpensive enchanted book librarian Villagers possible to create, which eventually led to people starting to sell those enchanted books for down to 1 diamond. On March, 2020, Mich purchased a shop plot from JennyBudew in the country of Dasiguo where he would set up his first Menders™ shop for the first time in a long time. There, he sells various food items including cooked porkchops, golden apples, golden carrots, bread, and apples. There is no formal headquarters as of yet, although it will soon be built in Mountainside, Mingren, and a logo will also be made soon.
