Pierrepoint Industries is a company owned and headed by Caroline Pierrepoint and one of the most powerful entities in Seattle. Focusing primarily on the development of industrial capacity, Pierrepoint envisions her firm as a means towards centralizing the Emerald Wasteland into a united polity.

History

Edward Pierrepoint, Caroline's great-grandfather, put his experience as an engineer towards refurbishing rather than scrapping prewar infrastructure: steamboat engines, harbor cranes, and eventually the Ballard Locks. He secured a percentage of all tolls collected on traffic passing through the refurbished locks for himself and his descendants; that money was the starting capital to found Pierrepoint Industries in 2210. The next generations, Clark and then Simon Pierrepoint, grew the company steadily and conservatively. With the foundation they built Caroline now feels stable enough to mount a campaign for all-out regional dominance.

Interests

Since its foundation the company has been very much focused on the long term. Its areas of concern are in industrial production and developing infrastructure. Rather than just making the most possible in the shortest amount of time, the Pierrepoints see their capital as something to be reinvested in the revitalization of the Emerald Wasteland.
