W.G.I

Wayne Global Industries, or W.G.I for short, is a major Scottish-American business conglomerate. W.G.I was originally founded in 1905, by Lord Darius Wayne of Haltoun, Scotland, as Wayne Chemicals. By 1913, it was one of the largest chemical Industrial companies in Europe, and the largest in England. By 1921, under Darius's son Anthony, Wayne Chemicals had expanded into the arms trade, selling weapons to the British, French and American Governments during World War 1. When Anthony retired as CEO in 1933, it had become one of the largest Arms suppliers on the planet. For the next 30 years, Wayne Chemicals [now renamed Wayne Chemicals and Munitions Company] was run by Anthony's son in law, British Lord Alexander Kane, before in 1963 it passed over to Anthony's youngest son, Darius the Third. In 1975, Darius expanded the Wayne brand even further by buying out Cobblepot Oil, one of the largest oil companies in the United States. By 1985, the Wayne brand was a major player in the Arms, Chemicals, and Energy industries, with significant holdings in oil reserves in Europe and the Middle East. When Darius passed the reins of the company [now known by its current name Wayne Global Industries] to his son Thomas, it was the third largest company on the planet. Under Thomas Wayne and his best friend and CFO Joe Fox, the Wayne Brand has expanded into technology fields through partnerships with several major IT Companies such as LexTech, Palmer Industries and S.T.A.R, and has even formed its own tech firm, Wayne Advanced Technologies, one of the worlds fastest growing IT Companies,and has also further expanded their arms industry through contracts with the US, Santa Priscan, Corto Maltese and Iraqi governments for advanced military equipment design and manufacturing. In 1990, Wayne formed the Wayne Medical Research Centre [later renmaed the Martha Wayne Research Centre] one of the worlds largest and most advanced Medical research and development labs. After Wayne died in a car accident in 2005, Joe Fox became the CEO of Wayne Global, becoming the first non-Wayne CEO of the company since Alexander Kane, and the first american to hold the position.
