The RV industry has also had its fair share of problems putting together RVs because of a broken supply chain. Winnebago Industries seems to have found a solution to at least keep up its battery supply.
Recently, the company announced its acquire of Lithionics, a major battery supplier. Let’s take a look at what this might mean for the future of Winnebago Industries.
Launched in 1958, Winnebago Industries has led the way in the RV industry for decades. It continues manufacturing Class As, Class Cs, camper vans, and travel trailers.
Lithionics, founded in 2010, makes advanced battery solutions. The products deliver power to electrical features of RVs, boats, and other specialty applications.
This purchase isn’t unusual for a company that owns both RV and marine brands. Lithionics offers enhanced technologies, which will help Winnebago Industries provide innovative products.
Lithium-ion batteries are a critical part of RV and marine travel. With the acquisition of these products, Winnebago will secure its sourcing for its overall development of RVs and boats.
Winnebago already produces accessibility-enhanced units and off-grid and off-road capable RVs. It will be fun to see how their designs and products are improved in the future.
