A new trailer manufacturer, Impact Trailers, is entering the scene in 2018 and the Elkhart, Indiana company is using the 2018 NATDA Trade Show as a launch pad for its local area. Impact Trailers, composed of industry veterans Brad Bell, Dwight Barnes and Jason Howe, is aiming to create a trailer for the next generation of consumers. The 2018 NATDA Trade Show will serve as an unofficial launch pad for company. Located in Elkhart, Indiana, Impact is keeping true to its roots by employing Indiana and Michigan natives to build products with quality and workmanship in mind. “As a new manufacturer, we’ve had the opportunity through our experiences to learn what’s been done right and what’s been done 30 wrong in the industry,” says Jason Howe, Impact’s Co-Owner. “Our personal experiences have led to product innovation, a greater understanding of market trends and the ability to forecast the industry’s next ten years and beyond.” Howe believes that the ownership’s combined sixty-plus years in the industry means the company is already firmly embedded with credibility, character and trust with its current and future dealer partners. “We’re committed to providing our dealer network a feature- driven, innovative product design they can be proud of,” he says. “We purchase quality components to construct durable trailers built for longevity.” NATDA Magazine www.natda.org
