A Special Report from our friends at CRVA

The Canadian Recreational Vehicle Association reports that RV Wholesale Shipments into Canada for the 3rd Quarter ending September 30th, 2023 totaled 4,459 units compared to 10,269 in 2022, representing a decrease of 56.6% year over year.

According to Statistical Surveys, RVDA of Canada reported that Retail Activity during the 3rd Quarter totalled 11,329 units and when compared to the wholesale shipment figure of 4,459 Canadian RV Dealer Inventory levels continued to significantly decrease during the period which would be considered abnormal compared to historical stats.

CRVA commented on the report that “dealers continued to liquidate prior year inventory on hand combined with transportation delay issues contributed to the much higher than anticipated decrease during the quarter”. 

With Transport Canada’s approval of an ELD exemption for RV Carriers effective October 20th, CRVA is optimistic that we will see an improvement in the 4th Quarter figures.
