Marion, North Carolina, Aug. 31, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Greene Concepts, Inc. (OTC Pink: INKW) announced today that the Company has received an order from Camping World to begin shipping over 10,000 cases of BE WATERTM to Jackson, Mississippi to assist with the cityโs catastrophic water crisis that has left the entire metropolitan area without access to running water.
The crisis has left Jackson residents without water for basic necessities including such sanitary basics as washing hands or flushing toilets. The cityโs water system has been plagued with problems for years and officials have had concerns of a failure for some time prior to the recent implosion and catastrophic failure.
Camping World contacted Greene Concepts to arrange for the immediate pickup and shipment of over 10,000 cases, roughly seven truckloads, of BE WATERTM to Jackson, Mississippi for distribution. The shipments will begin immediately. Camping World has indicated to Greene Concepts that it should prepare for additional subsequent shipments to Jackson following this initial amazing donation.
Lenny Greene, CEO of Greene Concepts, stated, โI am extremely moved by the huge generosity of Camping World to provide the residents of Jackson some immediate relief by contacting us to provide life sustaining drinking water for immediate shipment. Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Jackson during a crisis that most of us cannot even imagine. The generosity that Camping World has shown in humanitarian relief efforts time and time again goes beyond compare. I encourage everyone on their next visit to Camping World to thank all the associates for being part of such a great caring company.โ

RV shipments strong again in September
Oct. 26, 2020 10:32 AM ET|About: Camping World Holdings, Inc. (CWH)|By: Clark Schultz, SA News Editor
Total RV shipments were up 31.2% in September to 41,509 units, according to the RV Industry Association.
Towable RVs, led by conventional travel trailers, rose 35.3% to 37,990 units during the month.
Motorhomes shipments were down 1.0% to 3,519 units during the month.
"The demand for RVs continues to be strong heading into the fall and the industry is on track to surpass last yearโs numbers, despite the six to eight week closures earlier this spring," notes RV Industry Association President Craig Kirby.
"Between the growing trend to work and learn from your RV and the incredible fall and winter RV travel options, we do not see the demand for RVs going down anytime soon. For the year, shipments stand at 300,100 units, off just 3.2% as the RV industry continues to overcome the nearly two-month shutdown this Spring due to the Covid-19 pandemic," he adds.

Camping World Holdings, Inc. Announces the Expansion of RV Dealer Network and Plan to Shift Retail Strategy
September 03, 2019
LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Camping World Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CWH) (the โCompanyโ), operates the nationโs largest network of recreational vehicle (โRVsโ) sales, RV service, RV parts and accessories and outdoor products. Today, the Company announced that management and its board of directors approved a plan to strategically shift away from locations where the Company does not have the ability or where it is not feasible to sell and/or service RVs (the โPlanโ).
Currently, the Company operates 165 locations that sell and/or service RVs, with over 30 RV dealership locations opened or acquired since January 1, 2018. In addition, the Company operates 37 locations which do not sell and/or service RVโs but sell its assortment of outdoor lifestyle products. At certain locations that do not sell and/or service RVs, the Company is in the process of attempting to acquire and/or obtain the developmental consents, approvals and permits necessary for the sale and/or service of RVโs. The Company also operates TheHouse.com, primarily an ecommerce business, with five current specialty retail locations, and recently sold thirteen Uncle Dans and Rock Creek specialty retail locations.
The Company is in the early stages of evaluating the impact of the Plan and has had preliminary discussions regarding the sale, repurposing, relocating or closing of certain locations, with the current expectation of either selling, repurposing, relocating or closing approximately 27 to 37 locations. The actual number of stores the Company sells, repurposes, relocates, or closes may change. As part of the Plan, the Company is also evaluating the impact on the Companyโs supporting infrastructure and operations and expects the majority of the activities contemplated under the Plan to be completed by year-end.
Marcus A. Lemonis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, โWe believe the sale and/or servicing of recreational vehicles is our core and most important offering and, with the RV and outdoor consumer crossover, we believe there is an opportunity to continue growing our market share and improve our financial performance through the operation of locations with RV sales and/or service and, when feasible, our hunting, fishing and camping products. We will continue to operate our RV sales and/or service locations under three banners, Camping World, Gander RV and Outdoors and Gander RV.โ
Mr. Lemonis added, โWe will continue to open new RV dealerships and opportunistically make RV dealer acquisitions. To that end, we recently opened, or plan to open, new RV dealerships under the Camping World, Gander RV and Outdoors, Gander RV and Airstream banners in Coldwater, MI; Springfield, IL; Breaux Bridge, LA; Wichita, KS; Greenville, NC; Cicero, NY; Marion, IL; Denton, TX; Ashland, VA; Ft.
