SunnyBrook RV lays off half its workers

SunnyBrook RV has laid-off about 120 administration and production personnel which represents nearly half of the company's payroll. Between 130 and 140 employees remain. The 17-year-old company makes travel trailers, fifth wheel trailers and toyhaulers at its plant in Middlebury, Indiana.

According to the Elkhart Truth, production for the RV manufacturer has slowed largely because lenders are not providing the funding it needs to purchase RVs. Consequently, the company had been reduced to building units a few days each week or closing all together for short periods. The company decided to downsize so the remaining employees would have more substantial work.

The latest layoff was the second for SunnyBrook in 2008. Earlier, it had cut its workforce by about 40 employees.

The company remains optimistic and hopes to keep or even increase its market share. At the National RV Trade Show in Louisville this week, SunnyBrook debuted its Harmony lightweight product line designed to cater to consumers with smaller, more fuel-efficient tow vehicles.
