As we all know, the RV industry has been in a 2-year slump. During that same period (2008 and 2009), Heartland RVs has seen continued growth.
As we look ahead to 2010, we see the industry turning the corner and even more success for Heartland RVs. Below are a few bullet points I have excerpted from a memo sent to Heartland Dealers by Brian Brady, Heartland RVs President and CEO.
WORKFORCE
Building to ~1,200
More machinery, more plant space
More people to serve you
As you can see, we increasing our manufacturing capacity to handle the expected demand in 2010 and we are wrapping that capacity with workforce and customer service additions.
Thank you to all Heartland RVs product owners.
