Winnebago Industries to Receive 11th Consecutive RVDA Quality Circle Award

FOREST CITY, Iowa--Winnebago Industries, Inc. , the nation’s leading motor home manufacturer, received notification that the Company will once again receive the prestigious Quality Circle Award from the Recreation Vehicle Dealers’ Association (RVDA) at a ceremony conducted at the 44th Annual National RV Trade Show in Louisville, KY on November 27, 2006.

Winnebago Industries is the only recreation vehicle (RV) manufacturer to receive the Quality Circle Award every year since its inception 11 years ago.

Quality Circle Award winners are determined by the Dealer Satisfaction Index (DSI) survey, which RVDA conducts annually with its dealer organization. The DSI survey asks its members to rate their manufacturers’ performance in four categories: sales, product, management and service/warranty/support.

“We are very proud to receive the Quality Circle Award again this year,” said Winnebago Industries Chairman and CEO Bruce Hertzke. “We are also very proud to be the only manufacturer to receive this award each year since its inception over a decade ago. We view the DSI survey as a vital measurement tool for the quality of our products, our sales and service programs and our manufacturing processes. We believe the survey provides us with important benchmark information that shows how our dealer partners perceive the quality of Winnebago Industries products and services. We are truly humbled by the continued confidence shown by our dealer partners in Winnebago Industries and thank them for this coveted award. We would also like to thank our employees for their continued efforts to ensure that every Winnebago Industries motor home, program and service provided is of the highest quality. We will continue to strive to have the most innovative and highest quality products, services and support for both our dealer partners and retail customers.”
