Formed in 1863 Karrington was founded by a group of British businessmen whom planned to expand from Britain to America. The first store in America was founded in New York on the 10th November, it was a Tailors run by three businessmen Michael Draman, Frank Jones and Joseph King. The store was named Karrington Tailors and became a huge success over its first year, as it offered many British visitors/dignitaries a taste of home. The store still stands today in Brooklyn, the architecture not being changed since being built. Michael Draman was appointed as Director for Karrington in America and managed the Brooklyn store; whilst Draman was busy running the tailors the other two businessmen Frank Jones and Joseph King started a venture of their own. Jones and King opened a Jewellers in New York City the store however wasn't as successful as the Tailors however remained profitable and began to gain a reputation as one of the finest Jewellers in America being the only Jewellers to stock Pembroke Gold . Jones King and Draman created the Karrington Group in 1932 to better manage finances between both companies during the Great Depression.

Over the next 150 years Karrington continued to be profitable, it had by then opened 10 new stores in America and 4 in Britain. The business was passed down from father to son with the eldest child replacing their predecesor as the managing director for their family. Karrington is currently owned by John Draman, Holly Jones, and Gerald King.

This brings us to where we are today, Karrington has recently opened a store in ones of America's fasting growing cities, Evocity. With the store found in the v33x District it is one of Evocities' most new and upmarket stores attracting many of Evocities' elite to purchase there. This has given Karrington a large amount of influence in the city, allowing them to secure a great foothold in the local economy.

Hey , Billy Jeans here, owner of the Billy Jeans' Jean Jacket Store.
Just dropping by to inform you that Karrington is now under my ownership and will therefore remain open.

When I first went there to stake out my competition the owner scoffed at me, due to my attire being 100% consisting of jean cloth, clearly suffering from a mixture of bad sight and retardations, fruit of his family's continuous consanguinity. To be totally honest I pitied him at first, that was until he tries having me kicked out for, and I quote "lack of class and not wearing pants in my establishment", Appalled, I challenged him to a duel with a customary slapping with a nice long thick log of frozen feces I carry around in a cooler for such occasions.

My challenge was taken upon and we met behind the Nexus at midnight later that day. The duel consisted on a 1 versus 1 naked and armed combat in which we could only yield a net bag of 12 fresh tangerines- the first one to blink during the lengthy exchange of blows would lose! Needless to say we wouldn't be having this conversation had I not waddled out of the area as the victor.  You see, before the fight I took a key precaution that granted me this victory, I removed my eye lids with a pair of scissors and placed them in my fridge for later reattachment. Poor bastard never stood a chance.
He contested the result, upon which I saw myself forced to take out my trust ass hammer, which is a heavy claw-hammer I keep lodged near my colon in case there's an emergency and a beautiful painting or portrait are in dire need of being nailed to a wall. I am not ashamed to say that head cracked like a coconut.


Well, as direct result of the duel's arrangement, and also of 's death, Karrington's is now in my possession and the entire hierarchy it employed is now under my command. Which reminds me, you're all fired. Karrington's facilities will be used as storage room for my excess samples of jean cloth, as well as my medicinal jars of boiled cum.  

I'd be thankful if you were to not close this thread as I will be taking in applications for storage logistics and management, as well as a ledger to list the movements and storage of the varied sorts of items that should pass through those doors in the coming decade. 

Best regards,
Billy Jeans
