Positive signs for the industry in 2021

During the lunacy that was 2020, it was all too easy to focus solely on negative stories. So it’s good to kick off this, our first issue on sale in the new year, with two reports that I think are very positive. First, the Dutch caravan manufacturer that, after launching at the end of 2019, has come through the year with flying colours and is now thinking of exporting its products to Britain (see opposite page). And then there is a report on yet another bumper year for the mighty Erwin Hymer Group. Yes, here we are in yet another lockdown, but I hope these stories are a sign of the way things are going in 2021.

VAN LIVE! ONLINE THIS FEBRUARY!
The past year was eventful to say the least – it took its toll on all of us, as we were unable to get out on the road, sites were closed and dealers had to shut. Many leisure vehicle shows were postponed or cancelled, so it’s been difficult to see the latest news about your favourite brands and the many tempting accessories out there. That’s where Van Live! comes in!
