Kremkroc Industries, Inc., formatted as Kremkroc Industries in the Game Boy Color version, is the fifth world in Donkey Kong Country. Located at the top-left of Donkey Kong Island, Kremkroc Industries, Inc. is an industrial area filled with subterranean areas and factories run by the Kremlings. 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.[1] The world's boss is Dumb Drum, who is a large Black Drum.
The Factory world in Donkey Kong Country Returns was likely inspired by Kremkroc Industries, Inc. because it features arrangements of the former's music. In the Donkey Kong Country TV show, the place appears as King K. Rool's lair which the Mines are connected to.
Levels
Kremkroc Industries, Inc. has two factory levels, two walkway levels (one of them is a Mine Cart stage), a cave level, and an underwater level.
| Level | Description | Enemies | Animal Friends |
|---|---|---|---|
 Oil Drum Alley |
Oil Drum Alley takes place in a factory, and it has metallic floors, yellow caution strips, flaming oil barrels, and Gnawtys. The level has the Kongs evade Oil Barrels, bounce on rubber tires, and use the TNT barrels located inside loose floor tiles to find Bonus Areas. | Gnawty Kritter Manky Kong |
Rambi |
 Trick Track Trek |
This level has both a walkway and an elevator theme. After avoiding nuts thrown by a Necky at the start of the level, the lead Kong should proceed to the elevator platform. Once the leader sets foot on it, the platform automatically starts, though the speed and direction are unchangeable. In the first half of the level, Neckies appear to pester the Kongs, either flying at the elevator or spitting deadly nuts at them. After the continue barrel has been broken, Gnawties come to further annoy the Kongs, usually falling straight at them. | Necky Mini-Necky Gnawty Zinger Kritter Klump Klaptrap Manky Kong Krusha |
None |
 Elevator Antics* |
Another cave/elevator level. This level first starts off as a regular cave level, with many Slippas and Zingers to spare; the level even features ropes. Later in the level, though, rising and falling elevators are found. | Slippa Mini-Necky Zinger Klump |
None |
 Poison Pond* |
Poison Pond takes place in a polluted, green pond. Going to the left of the screen from where the level starts reveals a secret area which has the letter "K" and an animal crate with Enguarde inside. Many Mincers are found throughout the level, and often move in the Kong's path. Every water enemy is in the level except Chomps. | Bitesize Chomps Jr. Squidge |
Enguarde |
 Mine Cart Madness** |
The fifth level of the world and the second and last Mine Cart level. Unlike Mine Cart Carnage, the Kongs jump out of the Mine Cart to avoid dangerous obstacles, grab items, or to jump on enemies. | Gnawty Necky Zinger Krash |
None |
 Blackout Basement** |
The second and last factory level of the game. The level, as the name suggests, takes place in a lower part of a factory with electrical problems.

None |
 Boss level: Boss Dumb Drum |
This is where the Kongs fight the world boss, Dumb Drum, a giant oil drum who spawns enemies. | Kritter Slippa Klaptrap Klump Army |
