Thor Industries, Inc., was founded on August 29, 1980, when Wade F. B. Thompson and Peter B. Orthwein, who created the name "Thor" by combining the first two letters of each entrepreneur's name.

Over the years, Thor Industries purchased the Canadian company, General Coach, created Thor America, acquired Dutchmen, Four Winds, Komfort and Skamper.
