As a result of the war with the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the Trade Federation no longer transported goods within the Republic controlled space. Other trade companies took over this position. While most of the companies concentrated their resources on the main trade lines, CCS used light freighters to offer logistical services to the local trade lines. The Flagship of the company was the Stoke a R10C Consular-class cruiser.

Galactic Civil War – Alliance Support Services
There were several employees hoe joint up with the Rebellion, still in the begin of the civil war CCS tried to hold a neutral position against the Empire and the Rebellion. However after the Destruction of Alderaan and the attack on CCS space station the CCS joined the Alliance. The transports ships of CCS played an imported role in the Alliance Support Services.

The Modified light freighters from CCS, such as the Wildcat, were equipped the with additional external cargo pods to boost their cargo capacity. The small size made them useful when supplying ships or bases behind Imperial lines. With forged documentation making them appear to be legitimate tramp freighters, the CCS freighters could sometimes land openly at Imperial spaceports.

The two R10C Consular-class cruisers where one of the view well equipped bulk transport ships and mainly used efficient transport of bulk items such as fuel, food and medical supplies. The Stoke itself was used to evacuate the remain rebel personal during the Fourth Battle of Yavin 4.

The CCS helped to establish the safe world New Alderaan. There took also a role in construction of the infrastructure and the exporting raw material for the Alliance to use in its war effort.

However the work for ASS wasn´t without any risk as during the events of the Galactic Civil War the CCS lost four ships. Lucky most of the crews survived. Afterwards the CCS received a couple of GR-75 medium transports ships as a compensation for their loses.
