Widmore Construction has been featured on Lost and otherwise. In a Fire + Water flashback, Drive Shaft is filming their videoclip near a Widmore Construction site. Widmore Construction is also mentioned on Thomas Werner Mittelwerk's answer phone on the Hanso phone line (part of the Lost Experience) alongside Paik Heavy Industries.

Widmore Labs has also been seen on Lost. The company is seen to be the maker of a pregnancy test kit referenced in The Whole Truth. Widmore Labs has also sponsored or manufactured the balloon of the real Henry Gale.

Bad Twin Book Info

In Chapter 4, Widmore is said to have "begun with mid-town real estate, then expanded to the financial district, Florida, California, the Caribbean..." And that "aspects to the Widmore businesses... arcande construction and engineering projects, investments in wide range of scientific enterprises... At times there had been murmurs of Widmore involvement in off shore ventures that would have been illegal on U.S. soil; other rumors hinted at classified defense contracting or private security work of questionable ethics."

In Chapter 6, Googling "Widmore Corporation" pulls up "over ninety-seven thousand references... sites about the sale of eleven-million-dollar co-ops on Park Avenue, and articles about the construction of office towers in Singapore... references to joint ventures with something called the Hanso Foundation, and links to engineering jounals about new techniques for reinforcing concrete... society-page mentions of benefit galas, and investingative pieces about alleged enviromental violations in obscure corners of the world."

Theories

  • It may be something like ACME
  • The company that made the stations
  • The pregancy test was on the airplane because one of the losties is also recently pregnant.
  • Widmore Labs can be arranged to spell "a womb dr lies".
  • Michael worked for Widmore Construction.
  • Based in Widmore (an area in the London Borough of Bromley) (according to "Bad Twin" those who run it live in America)
  • Widmore Construction was contracted by the Hanso Foundation to build the Stations
  • Widmore Labs provides the DHARMA Initiative with medicines and chemicals. It is also responsible for the quality of the DHARMA-branded food.
  • May have sponsored Desmond's "race around the world".
  • The company was owned by Harry and Libby Widmore.
  • On the Widmore Group website it lists an Anthony B. Cooper as being on the board of directors, presumably Locke's father.
  • On the Official Lost Podcast for May 9th, 2006, the producers indicated there are two Widmore Labs, an America and a British.
  • On the Widmore Website www.widmoregroup.com the contact section currently displays only the number 6. Perhaps this is a reference to the Persephone message "not 1 and 6"?
