The Cherryh Mercantile Trust, more commonly known simply as the CMT, was the precursor to the Interstellar Shipping and Mercantile Guild. Named for its base of operations, Cherryh Station, the CMT was primarily controlled by the Highborn, but many other interests held stakes.

The invention of the SPEC drive led to a complete reinvention of galactic trade. Rather than let itself be ground down through inability to change, the CMT simply folded into something new, becoming the core of the Interstellar Shipping and Mercantile Guild.
