NEW ERA
FOR NEW
AGE
In the space of eight weeks, New Age
Caravans has opened four new dealerships,
increasing its network to 16 locations
around Australia and New Zealand.
“Between the first of July and the first of
September, we’ve had four dealerships open
across three different states,” New Age dealer
and business development manager Shane
Holloway said.
These dealerships are in Griffith and Nowra,
NSW, Darwin, and Bundaberg, Qld.

has been part of the range for many years.

Since its acquisition by the Walkinshaw
Automotive Group, New Age has integrated
Walkinshaw’s automotive expertise in
engineering, design and manufacturing.
“To gain a unique foothold in the market, our
focus has been on using their resources to
design and tool our own components and
build new products that can’t be replicated
