Kim Dewsnup Retires After 25 Years in RV Industry

Progress Manufacturing

Kim Dewsnup, trainer, sales representative and “friend to all,” is retiring, according to his company, Progress Manufacturing.

“While Progress’ well-known brands, Equal-i-zer Hitch and Fastway Trailer Products, are known for quality products, Progress would not be where it is, without the people who work there. Progress thanks Kim for the 13 years he has given the company and honors his 25 years in the industry,” the company said.

Before he entered the RV industry, Dewsnup worked as a coal miner in Richfield, Utah. Wanting to look for a safer job, Dewsnup began working at Wing Enterprises, where he helped with the creation of the Quickdraw ball mount, before becoming vice president of sales at the newly formed Quickdraw company. Dewsnup went on to work for Coast Distribution Systems as a corporate trainer before eventually joining Progress in 2010.

“Kim Dewsnup is amazing and is the perfect friend and co-worker,” said Rich Elliott, director of sales and marketing. “I respect and hope to emulate his hard work, optimism and gratitude. Kim has had a very distinguished career. He has made a massive impact on people, products and the industry. We will miss his smile, wisdom and mustache. Thank you, Kim!”

“The bottom line is that Progress Mfg. will never be the same, the day Kim walks out that door for the last time,” added Progress Mfg. sales account manager, Deven McCann. “Everything that he taught us about hard work, people, loyalty and integrity will always stay.”
