2009 Fleetwood goes into Administration

The Suffolk based caravan manufacturer, Fleetwood Caravans Ltd went into administration on Tuesday 6 January 2009.

It is a sad day for the caravan manufacturer which had been an industry leader for over 40 years.

This will not affect or have any influence over the activities of Adria Concessionaires Ltd, the sister company to Fleetwood Caravans, which will still trade as normal in the UK without any changes.

Managing Director Slavica Sterk said: "We can confirm Adria's commitment to our UK customers and partners now and in the future. The business results for 2008 have been a complete success for Adria Concessionaires; the response to the product from retail customers has been overwhelming and all these facts give us the new energy to focus on development of new products, some of which will be present at the Boat, Caravan & Outdoor Show at the NEC is Birmingham next month."

Adria Concessionaires has said that full support is available for all of their dealers and customers. There has been a considerable investment to create a comprehensive range of products adapted for the UK market which will continue in 2009 and beyond. The NEC show will see the launch of a brand new UK developed product.
