'''Kremkroc Industries, Inc.''', formatted as '''Kremkroc Industries''' in the [[Game Boy Color]] version, '''Kremkroc Industries Inc.''' in the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, and also known as '''Kremkrock Industry Inc.''',<ref>{{cite|date=January 1995|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) Issue #28|page=59}}</ref> is a location in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. Located at the top-left of [[Donkey Kong Island]], Kremkroc Industries, Inc. is the fifth [[world]] of the game and an industrial area filled with subterranean areas and factories run by the [[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. This area of the island, once lush and overgrown with island greenery, has been stripped of all its natural beauty. Instead, smog clouds the air and there is a general lack of greenery. King K.

{{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 factory-like area near the [[Gorilla Glacier]] that first appeared in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. Built by the [[Kremling Krew]] under [[King K. Rool]]'s orders<ref>''Donkey Kong Country'' Player's Guide, Nintendo, 1994, p. 88</ref>, Kremkroc is made up of a few large buildings, a large polluted lake, several mines, and a robotic giant [[Oil Drum]] boss named [[Dumb Drum]] which was programmed to squish the [[Kong]]s<ref>''Donkey Kong Country'' Player's Guide, Nintendo, 1994, p. 104</ref>. Whether it is related to the much larger [[Factory (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|factory]] that appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' is unknown, although the latter features arrangements of the former's music. In the [[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' TV show]], the place appears as King K. Rool's lair which the [[Monkey Mines|Mines]] are connected to.

|description1=The first level of Kremkroc Industries, Inc., Oil Drum Alley takes place in a factory. [[Oil Barrel]]s are main obstacle that the Kongs have to avoid along the way.
|This level has metallic floors, yellow caution strips, flaming oil barrels, and [[Gnawty]]s. 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 Area]]s.

|name3=[[Elevator Antics]]{{footnote|main|a}}
|This level has a walkway theme 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.
|description3=The third level of Kremkroc Industries, Inc., Elevator Antics first begins as an ordinary cave level, with [[Slippa]]s and [[Zinger]]s to avoid, and rising and falling [[lift|elevators]] do not appear until the second half.

|image5=[[File:Mine Cart Madness 7.png]]
|Another cave/elevator level. This level first starts off as a regular cave level, with many [[Slippa]]s and [[Zinger]]s to spare; the level even features ropes. Later in the level, though, rising and falling elevators are found.

|description6=The sixth level of Kremkroc Industries, Inc., Blackout Basement takes place in a factory with electrical problems. As a result, the lights flicker on and off repeatedly, and while the lights are off, the level goes completely black, hiding everything except the Kongs.
|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 [[Mincer]]s are found throughout the level, and often move in the Kong's path. Every water enemy, excluding Chomps, is featured in the level.
