Caravan, RV & Accommodation Industry of Australia Ltd
Caravan RV & Accommodation Industry of Australia Ltd (CRVA), as it is now known, was formed in 1992 out of industry concern for declining RV manufacturing levels. The Australian Caravanning & Holiday Parks Industry has come a long way since this time with manufacturing levels now over 5 times that of the early 1990’s.
CRVA is a membership based organisation with each of the individual State Associations and the Recreational Vehicle Manufacturers Association of Australia (RVM Australia) providing representation for the CRVA National Board, and various operational committees.
CRVA Vision
To be the national peak body representing the Caravanning & Holiday Parks industry in Australia (caravan holiday parks, caravans, motorhomes, camper trailers, tent trailers, camping, cabins, plus other RV's, and industry suppliers), and provide for growth, development and professionalism of industry participants.
