I love Cub Campers and have been to their new premises and hope to purchase one of their products in the next 12 months but I thought this quote was funny
"Having built its new factory, the company is now turning its eye back on the North American market it has let slide over recent years because of a lack of production capacity. The business has hired a designer with computerised production expertise to devise making camper-trailers in Ikea-style flatpacks that can be assembled at their destination, which would reduce freight costs and allow it to expand into offshore markets with affordable products."

Isn't that what the Chinese are doing to Australia. Cub according to the article are a major player in the Camper Trailer Guild for Australian made and manufactured CT's but want to take a slice of someone elses market.
