Keystone RV Opens Fourth Cougar Manufacturing Facility

Keystone RV

Keystone RV has begun manufacturing in a new plant and increased its capacity for its Cougar brand. This is Keystone’s fourth dedicated Cougar plant: three at the company’s Goshen, Ind., campus, and one in Pendleton, Ore. The new facility will add more than 150 new jobs in Elkhart County.

The company said that demand for the Cougar brand surged following the product line’s 2020 redesign and the recent uptick in market demand.  The new plant was originally scheduled to open last year but was ultimately delayed due to the pandemic.

“The addition of this new plant will substantially increase capacity for both fifth wheels and travel trailers so that we can shorten lead times of pre-sold units that have already been ordered by our dealers and put us back in a stocking position sooner,” said Scott Taylor, Keystone RV product manager.

Debuting in 1998, Cougar has been a leader in innovation and quality, Keystone RV said, adding that it has been the most popular mid-profile fifth wheel and laminated travel trailer on the market for more than two decades. This model year, the brand will produce its 200,000th unit.
