Marone Industries is an international shipping company that was founded by Massimo Marone who ran it with an iron fist for decades and Marone Industries became known as a very conservative company. When it was revealed that Ridge Forrester was Massimo's son Ridge became Vice Chairman of the Marone Industries and added fashion house Spectra Fashions as a subsidiary but Massimo eventually sold it back to Sally Spectra. Ridge eventually returned to Forrester Creations but remained on the Marone board until Massimo's other son Dominick Marone became more involved with the company. Nick eventually double crossed his father and forced the Marone board to remove Massimo as CEO and make him the new CEO. Nick used Marone Industries to buy Forrester Creations but after it was revealed that Nick's mother and Massimo's ex-wife Jacqueline Payne Marone was a prostitute the Marone board fired Nick as CEO but did sell him Forrester Creations. Nick sold his stock in Marone Industries to board member George Septolino, who presumably took over as CEO.
Marone Industries also has interests in industries other than shipping. It was revealed that this includes banking and real estate when Massimo was able to check the bank account records of Mark Maclaine to prove that Stephanie bribed him to help her fake a heart attack in order to break up Ridge's marriage to Brooke. Mark Maclaine revealed that his apartment complex was owned by Marone Industries.
Massimo is still a major shareholder in Marone Industries. It is not known to what extent Ridge has in the company but as Massimo's eldest son, chosen heir in Massimo's will, and former Vice Chairman Ridge is thought to have some association with Marone Industries.
