FYI Production has come to a halt

[ARD]

Pro Air provides the dash air for Newmar, Keystone and many other brands. They have shut down and now Newmar and other manufacturers are scrambling. Meanwhile production at Newmar shut down yesterday and likely will be shut down next week as well.

Pro Air and other supply chain woes?

Yes, I believe you are right. I overheard a group of men talking this morning while having breakfast and it would seem that there is more to the shut down than just Pro Air.

HWH sounds like they've been problematic, people are out a year waiting on HWH steps.

That happen to NAPA A year and a half ago. Spector (Canada) supplied NAPA with radiators and filed bankruptcy out of the blue. NAPA has been scrambling ever since to find another supplier. The other suppliers are trying to meet the demand for their already customers. I still buy most of mine from other sources outside NAPA.
There is opportunity for a U.S. based company to really make big with production here in the States of many different products.. It would be a year or so before production of any product could start and I believe that investors are saying no because of the mess the United States is in right now also.

I assume that everyone saw the announcement that Norcold is ending production in the US. Regardless of whether you have any concerns about the safety of a Chinese-made Norcold, it's difficult to expect that transferring production won't put some wrinkles into the supply chain.
‘It’s a shame’; Norcold to shut down facilities in two northern Miami Valley communities

Does anybody know it they have started production again?

It was just 3 or 4 years ago we were bringing 10's of thousands of manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. What happened?

I wonder?

As Mel Fischer would say; “Today‘s the Day”!

 

[Richpatty]

Do we know if Pro air is shut down permanently?

I had a senior moment.

What's the latest word on production now? Did they ever start back up?

So I guess you're living at Newmar now?

I escaped last week, but I love it there so much I decided to experience some winter weather so I will return in March. They may even give my own mailbox. Once the woodwork is finished, I will be off exploring getting in loads of trouble.

I would think you would have your own private spot at Camp Newmar by now.

Well, I do have my favorite spot BUT someone had the nerve to park in it for over a month and they weren't even staying in their coach. Hmpfh!
