Gadd Science, Incorporated, also shortened to Gadd Science, Inc.[1] and referred to as Gadd Industries,[2] is a company that is heavily implied to be owned and operated by Professor E. Gadd. It is first mentioned by FLUDD in the beginning of Super Mario Sunshine.

In Mario Kart Arcade GP, Gadd Science, Incorporated is shown to have a building in Diamond City. The building features a sign with the company's logo and "Oya-ma Company" on it, being a mistranslation of the company's Japanese name, similar to various other in-game signs in the game. On the race course itself, several magic brushes, one of the companies inventions,[3] are seen, as well as a statue of E. Gadd himself.

Diamond City returns in Mario Kart Arcade GP 2, where the building's appearance is unchanged.

Inventions[edit]

FLUDD is the only invention directly mentioned to have been created by Gadd Science, Incorporated. Other objects in the franchise also bear the company's logo, a stylized depiction of Professor E. Gadd's face. The logo for the company also appears in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie on a mug owned by Kamek.
