An Australian supplier of control and management systems for the RV industry, BMPRO, has opened an office and warehouse in Elkhart, Ind. Throughout 2018, BMPRO showed its commitment to investing in the U.S. market by regular visits and dialogue with RV manufacturers, introducing the RVMaster.
Two staff members are already on site: Kris Volheim as sales manager, and Scott Hunter as systems integration engineer. Plans to grow the team over the next six months are in place with support and regular visits from head office in Melbourne, Australia.
“I formed KV Pro Solutions, a sales and market development support for the RV industry, after two decades of highly successful RV sales,” said Volheim. “In 2018, KV Pro Solutions was contracted by BMPRO to help bring their line of RV management systems into the U.S. market. This relationship is a great fit.”
Hunter was born and raised in Elkhart and is a staff sergeant in the U.S. Air Force with more than nine years’ service. He holds a degree in applied sciences and is excited about being an integral part of a growing company in his home town.
“The overview of BMPRO instantly had me intrigued,” said Hunter. “With my background and prior experience, coupled with the information from the team in Melbourne, I decided that being a part of this company was not something I wanted to pass up.”
BMPRO has more than fifty years manufacturing experience for OEM power and switching solution.
“The RVMaster is flexible in its capabilities, which means that manufacturers can differentiate themselves in such a competitive market,” said Louise Bayliss, CEO. “We are really excited to be working with RV Manufacturers in Elkhart to bring to the RVMaster to life.”
