This must be the greatest farces in RV History. Winnebago US who “won”a court case In Australia too beat a “ copycat” builder using their name. Is now producing in Australia
Winnebago Australia is a division of Apollo Tourism & Leisure Ltd (ATL). ATL is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange and is a multi-national, vertically integrated manufacturer, rental fleet operator, wholesaler and retailer of a broad range of recreational vehicles, including motorhomes, campervans and caravans.
Winnebago is committed to supporting local industry, with all Australian Winnebago motorhomes, campervans and caravans custom built to suit Australia and New Zealand’s tough conditions, constructed by highly-skilled RV manufacturing teams employed in Australia and New Zealand.
So reading between the lines there is NO MANUFACTURER of Winnebago here. What Travel Trailers , Motorhomes that were brought in failed miserably.
Meanwhile the “Copycat” now called AVIDA RV is expanding rapidly posting wanted advertisements and training courses for apprentices. They claim justifiably so too be the biggest manufacturer of Motorhomes in Australia and New Zealand
Absolutely hilarious bun fight over a name that in the end has been tossed aside
