King K. Rool's Factory[1] is a location on Kongo Bongo Island that appears in the Donkey Kong Country television series. It is owned by King K. Rool, where he and his crew plot their plans and produce devices to steal the Crystal Coconut from the apes. It is based on Kremkroc Industries, Inc. from Donkey Kong Country.

The factory is located in a barren region of the island. Its main entrance is built on a rock wall and is shaped like a skull. The main part of the factory is often used by King K. Rool to gather his army due to its massive size and features several Mine Cart tracks, giant pipes, and piles of boxes. At the end of the room, there is K. Rool's throne, which has a console to monitor parts of the island and a giant statue of a crocodile head with the letter K on top. A safe is located on the left. The factory also has two other floors: a lower floor where various devices are built (which goes unseen in the series) and an upper floor, the location of K. Rool's study; it is accessed via a platform under K. Rool's throne and has red walls decorated with golden depictions of crocodiles. It also has a door to an unseen room and a bookshelf that can be revealed by pressing a button on the console. Some of the Mine Cart tracks are connected to the Mountain Mines, with one of them having a turntable (which is also an elevator to the lower floor).

The lighting of the factory is much darker in "Bad Hair Day" when compared to the rest of the series.
