TRAK SNAPS UP PIONEER
Trakmaster Caravans’ parent company, Gason,
has bought Pioneer Campers.
“We see this as a great fit between our
Ararat (Vic) manufacturing division and our
Trakmaster Caravans plant at Bayswater (Vic),”
Gason managing director Wayne Gason said.
“Our plan is to manufacture all the steel
fabrication parts for Pioneer campers at
Gason’s Blake Street, Ararat, plant and to
carry out the final assembly work at our
Bayswater plant, creating a second assembly
line specifically for Pioneer Campers.
“This will create more long term jobs in
SILVER
BULLET!
Ararat and also give a number of our valued
staff the opportunity to take on greater
responsibilities in the company.”
According to Mr Gason, when Pioneer
Campers was put on the market in April/May,
Gason saw an opportunity to grow its Offroad
Adventure division.
He said that no changes were planned to the
Pioneer stable of offroad campers in the short
term, and that warranties of new campers
purchased under Pioneer’s previous owner
would remain covered.
