Cruiser RV, LLC, is expanding into a second factory, which will create up to 200 new jobs in Indiana by 2014.

Cruiser RV plans to invest more than $850,000 to lease a 140,000 square-foot manufacturing facility, add machinery and make improvements to infrastructure.

Plans are already in place to begin production at the new facility by the end of the year and hiring will begin in the coming weeks.

“We simply were busting at the seams in our current Howe, Ind. facility and faced making a big decision,” says Cruiser RV President Jeff Fought. “We’ve been a single plant organization since our inception, but we feel this is the logical next step for us. The LaGrange plant will give us the needed flexibility to expand our current product offering, while reducing our lead time during the peak selling season and improving overall product quality.”

Cruiser RV currently produces four lightweight travel trailer lines –Fun Finder X, Fun Finder Ultra, ViewFinder and Shadow Cruiser. Check out CruiserRV.com for more information.
