Another Aussie built camper manufacturer goes to the wall, such bad news, all the best to all the Follow Me crew.

They built a top-quality camper too, hope things work out for George and crew. Just a bloody shame really  :'(

I may be behind, but a bloke told me yesterday that Johnno's is closing up shop as well ??
Any truth in that ?

That's a shame..  didn't know either of them but it's sad to see aussie manufactures closing..

I work for a manufacturing company and we are starting to see the shift of competitors from China now to Europe... 

Obviously we don't make camper trailers...

I know another big Australian made trailer that is hurting thanks to all the imports. Bound to happen, can't compete as much as they want to... Aus made means jack Sh!t these days....
Just need to go to a camper trailer show and see all the identical trailer side by side with different names.
