LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 23, 2022--

Camping World Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CWH) (“Camping World”), America’s Recreation Dealer, today announced an agreement to acquire Richardson’s RV Centers. The Richardson’s RV Centers acquisition is the largest acquisition in company history and strengthens Camping World’s position as the Number 1 RV dealer in California. The agreement includes eight locations in California and Indiana: five current dealership locations, one future dealership location, and two parts and service centers.

“The Richardson’s top-notch management along with their solid team members are the primary reason we sought this deal,” said Marcus Lemonis, CEO and Chairman of Camping World Holdings. “We know the Richardson’s RV Centers add immediate value for our customers, as an iconic family brand that has been providing exceptional service to RVers for over 30 years.”

The California locations will transition to the Camping World brand and bring the company current count to 12 RV dealerships and five parts and service centers in the state, with a future RV dealership coming soon. The Indiana location will convert to our RVs.com brand and provide a digital and factory direct experience for customers nationwide. The SuperCenters will offer a wide range of new and used RVs from top manufacturers in addition to a full assortment of RV and outdoor products and accessories and the entire portfolio of Good Sam products and services.
