General RV

General RV Center, which calls itself the nation’s largest family-owned RV dealer, will join the North Carolina community with a new location in Salisbury scheduled to open next year.

Located approximately 40 miles north of Charlotte in Rowan County, this will be General RV’s first dealership in North Carolina and its 16th Supercenter nationwide.

“Being in North Carolina allows us to introduce our passion for RVing to this region of the country. Our high-quality service will provide more accessibility for our new and existing customers,” said Loren Baidas, president of General RV. “We are excited to add a new home in a community that is passionate about the outdoors and embraces so many of the same family values that we do.”

General RV plans to break ground in mid-August to start construction on a 71,000-square-foot facility. The dealership will have more than 30 service bays, including a six-bay body shop, with enough space to house 700 RVs on the lot. A fall 2024 opening is projected.

General RV will invest an estimated $25 million in Rowan County in real property improvements and equipment. Once opened, the dealership will have more than 150 full-time jobs with an average salary of $65,000. Construction and development of the site is expected to create an additional 66 indirect and induced jobs within the surrounding community.
