Located at the top-left of [[Donkey Kong Island]], Kremkroc Industries, Inc. is the fifth [[world]] and an industrial area filled with subterranean areas and factories run by [[Kremling]]s. The factories generate a lot of pollution, causing the area to be murky. The pollution even carries over into a large pond at the bottom of the world. According to the [[Nintendo Power]] guide, Kremkroc Industries, Inc. used to be a lush environment before Kremlings built the factories.<ref>{{cite|quote='''Factory''': ''Welcome to the wastelands.

| {{file link|DKC DK Island.jpg|The original render for Donkey Kong Island}} places the factory behind [[Vine Valley]] instead of on the Donkey Kong head's brow, suggesting it and [[Gorilla Glacier]] swapped world placement during the game's development.
| | '''Kremkroc Industries, Inc.''' is a large, heavily-polluted industrial area near the [[Gorilla Glacier]] that first appeared in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. Presumably built by the [[Kremling]]s, it boasts several factories, a large polluted lake, several mines, and a giant [[Oil Drum]] boss named [[Dumb Drum]] that tries to squish the Kongs. It is probably a mining center, holding more mines and caves than factories. After [[Dumb Drum]] was defeated by the Kongs, it was probably deactivated, as it was never explored later and future views of Donkey Kong Island from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong's Quest]]'' showed no smoke billowing from the factory smokestacks. It could have once been lush area full of nature (like [[Mekanos]]) that was taken over by Kremling technology, but if it recovered back to its original forest state, or it had such an environment, is unknown. However, similar area in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' is known as the [[Factory (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Factory]]. It is likely that this is supposed to be the same location, and is possibly the remainder of the Kremlings' occupation on the island. In the [[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' tv show]], the place appeared as [[King K Rool]]'s lair which the [[Monkey Mines|Mines]] are connected to. |
