Lethbridge Industrial
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Lethbridge Industrial is a human corporation that manufactures various technologies for the United Nations Space Command. It is based in Lethbridge, Corsica, on the planet Concord.[1] Several of the company's technologies are used by SPARTAN-IV supersoldiers.[2] The Lethbridge Combat Fields is utilized by the corporation as a testing site for variants of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2].[3]
History
Lethbridge Industrial created many large-scale manufacturing plants on Sargasso by 2546; the town Belisk was built around these plants. The Office of Naval Intelligence had invested a large amount of money in the town's Lethbridge facilities to produce military-grade gear and munitions. When the Covenant attacked the planet in 2546, ONI sent in Orbital Drop Shock Troopers to recover valuable research data from the facilities. While Gamma-Six unknowingly served as a distraction, Alpha-Nine was tasked with retrieving the data from Lethbridge's headquarters in Belisk. Although the Covenant was unaware of the importance of the data in the facilities, they nonetheless sent out a contingent of soldiers to destroy the manufacturing plants.[4] Alpha-Nine was eventually successful in recovering the data from the facility,[5] and it was transported to Lethbridge, Concord.[4]
In 2556, Lethbridge Industrial was one of several companies "Flagged for Review" by ONI after the Sedra terrorist attack.[6]

Behind the scenes
This company is a reference to Dan Hammill, a Monitor on the Halo Waypoint forums and founder of Ready Up Live, and Jeff Wood, who is a staff member of the aforementioned community.[9] Both Hammill and Wood reside in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. Ready Up Live have created a tongue-in-cheek website for the company.
