Camping World Buys Cooper's RV Center In Greater Pittsburgh

 | Oct 18, 2017 04:17AM ET

In an effort to expand its RV dealerships, Camping World Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CWH) recently announced the planned acquisition of Cooper’s RV Center in the greater Pittsburgh market.

Camping World already operates RV dealerships in the Hanover and Harrisburg areas of Pennsylvania. The company intends to boost its presence in western Pennsylvania with the RV Center acquisition.

Notably, the Conard family-owned Cooper’s RV Center has been serving the western Pennsylvania for more than 65 years. The company offers sales, parts and accessories, as well as service to those opting camping and recreational vehicles. With its acquisition, Camping World would offer additional benefits from its national network of RV SuperCenters to its customers and the public.

As a matter of fact, Camping World has been making efforts to expand its footprint in targeted markets on the back of strategic acquisitions. Recently, the company announced its plans to acquire Uncle Dan’s Outfitters — an outdoor gear, camping supplies and apparel retailer.

This diligent acquisition is in line with the company’s strategy to solidify its presence in the outdoor lifestyle market. The buyout will help it offer a wider range of products and subsequently expand the customer base. Earlier, the company announced the acquisition of American RV located in Grand Rapids, MI.

Camping World’s strategic moves, in a bid to expand its portfolio, have helped the company outperform its Zacks Investment Research
