High-end, Australian-made camper trailer business Offline Campers has quadrupled its floorspace and refurbished its offices and showroom at Lionsgate, the former home of Holden, boosting manufacturing and jobs growth in Adelaide’s north.
The new Offline Campers manufacturing site, which officially opened June this year, has included renovating and expanding the 1950s-era factory floor space and offices.
The South Australian, family-owned business, which began in former defence industry mechanical engineer Sam Reynolds’ back shed, will now manufacture camper trailers across more than 4,500 sqm of floorspace, being built by more than 22 employees.
Mr Reynolds said Offline Campers was going from strength to strength nationally, at a time when people were turning to local tourism and higher-end, off-road experiences. “Offline Campers has been focussing on building the highest-quality campers, working with Australian suppliers to use locally-manufactured components such as steel and electronic fittings, aimed to withstand the harshest conditions of remote and off-grid locations,” Mr Reynolds said.
“We’ve been listening to people who want to go further offroad and off-grid to meet their specific needs, whether that be the comfort of a shower, coffee machine and queen-sized bed or better dirt and dust protection for their dirt bikes while off the beaten track,” he said.
“Because we take the time to adapt each camper to our customers’ needs, we have forward orders into 2027 and we’ve had to expand our manufacturing capabilities. That means more jobs, more money being spent in Adelaide’s north, and ultimately more people touring through South Australia’s remote and incredibly beautiful outback.”
Offline Campers is one of very few in Australia to design and manufacture locally, using the maximum amount of local components possible to build the Swiss Army Knife of camper trailers.
Each Offline Campers model has been designed to suit people of all abilities and ages, with simple assembly an important design feature to ensure equipment is easy to access.
