Leadership Transition at Tiffin Motorhomes

In a significant development for the recreational vehicle industry, THOR Industries, Inc. announced the resignation of Leigh Tiffin from his position as President of Tiffin Motorhomes, effective immediately. Tiffin Motorhomes, a well-respected name in the RV sector, is headquartered in Red Bay, Alabama, and has built a strong reputation over the years for its commitment to craftsmanship, customer service, and innovation. The resignation marks a pivotal moment in the company’s journey, but the Tiffin family is set to remain actively engaged, ensuring that the core values of the brand endure.

Leigh Tiffin, who is the grandson of company founder Bob Tiffin, will be pursuing a new personal career opportunity aimed at enhancing his leadership and professional skills. In a heartfelt statement regarding his departure, Leigh reflected on the emotional ties he has with Tiffin Motorhomes, expressing that it represents not just a business, but also a family legacy. He stated, "This decision was not easy, because Tiffin Motorhomes is not just a company to me — it's family, legacy, and a team of people I deeply respect."

The Tiffin brand has blossomed under THOR Industries’ ownership, which has allowed it to preserve its own identity while benefiting from the parent company’s substantial resources. Leigh expressed pride in how Tiffin has thrived since the acquisition and conveyed optimism for its future, stating, "I truly believe the future is incredibly bright for Tiffin, and I'll always be cheering for the team and the brand."

Bob Tiffin remains as the guiding force for the company, actively participating and supporting operational leadership, ensuring that the established culture and values continue to steer the brand in the right direction. He notably praised Leigh for his outstanding contributions, stating, "Leigh has done outstanding work leading this business and carrying the Tiffin name forward with pride." Bob's steadfast commitment underlines the Tiffin family’s dedication to their heritage and the market.

In addition to Bob Tiffin's continued role, Van Tiffin will retain his position as Senior Advisor of Manufacturing, playing an essential part in upholding the high-quality craftsmanship associated with the Tiffin brand. This transition signifies a crucial moment of continuity for Tiffin as it seeks to maintain its operational momentum.

Bob Martin, President and CEO of THOR Industries, expressed gratitude to Leigh for his service and reassured stakeholders of THOR's ongoing commitment to the Tiffin brand and its family members. He stated, "Leigh has played an important role in the recent success of the Tiffin brand, and we wish him all the best in his next chapter." The involvement of the Tiffin family is expected to provide stability and reassurance during this period of leadership change.

Moreover, to ensure that Tiffin Motorhomes maintains its operational flow seamlessly, the Jayco leadership team, guided by President Ken Walters, will be coordinating with Tiffin’s management to support ongoing operations and strategic goals.

Despite the leadership changes, the company assures that Tiffin Motorhomes enjoys strong order growth and dealer support, with no anticipated disruptions in production or customer service. This confidence speaks volumes about the brand's resilience and its commitment to delivering quality.
