On Wednesday May 9th, Redwood RV completed the 1000th Redwood unit. The Redwood brand of high-end recreational vehicles debuted in August 2010 and built 270 units in the first year.
“Redwood RV has been growing since Day One. In the past six months alone, we’ve had to increase production four times to meet demand,” notes Tom Montague, General Manager. “We understand what the Baby Boomer market wants, and our robust sales reflect that.”
The first four months of the company’s existence, not a single unit was produced as the Redwood team gathered market intelligence. The result of this extensive research phase is a company philosophy of residential quality which sets Redwood apart from competitors.
“The Redwood RV story is about paying attention to our market and creating a product based on what the consumer wants,” state Tom Montague, General Manager. “Our consumer demands residential luxuries in a recreational vehicle. Redwood exceeds their expectations.”
At the time of this release, market demand had pushed Redwood production to 6 units a day with special runs of the new Blackwood product.
