No real companies, sorry, but you are allowed Ertsaz companies (as in, not-Nestle and not-Kraft but are clearly those companies.) Size of colony ship determines starting city size and population.

So would a private company with a large colony ship and gets their aid in the form of processed materials be okay to use?
