(Ed’s note: Aw thanks Shane! I’m
blushing!)
What is a “Woody Caravan”?
A Woody Caravan is a caravan that has
been built from the chassis up using
mainly timber/wood-based products.
From external structure to all internal
cabinetry we use plywood and solid
timber.
Who are your customers mainly?
Our main customers would be for our
Events/Bar style Woody Caravans
although we are getting a lot more
requests these days for one off custom
builds as well.
Where have some of your Woody
Caravans ended up?
We are very proud to say that not only
do we have 60+ Woody Caravans based
in Australia but we also have customers
with Woody Caravans in London UK,
Paris France, Coral Coast Fiji and now
in Redondo Beach California USA.
Which is your most famous Woody
Caravan?
That’s a hard one as we have built some
fairly well known Woody Caravans over
the years. I would say a top three for
different reasons would be: Stone &
Wood Brewery Woody Caravan (as who
doesn’t mind a nice Pacific Ale on a hot
day), “My Little Peony” (that took part
in the 2016 Sydney Gay & Lesbian
Mardi Gras) and “Lawdy Miss Claudy”
(who has received a lot of attention
on Social Media with her incredible
photos)
But I believe all of our customers are
famous in their own communities.
What is your favorite part of the job?
We get to meet some incredible and
very inspiring people with our job
from all walks of life from some of the
biggest corporations in the world all
the way down to first time business
owners that put everything on the line
for a dream that they have. To see our
customers achieve their dreams is one
of those things that brings a massive
smile to my face.
What makes Woody Caravans so
special?
I don’t know if you would say there is
anything really special about Woody
Caravans, just a lot of self belief, hard
work, dedication, hard work, bit of luck
and did I mention hard work?
What has been the highlight of your
business so far?
On a personal level I would say getting
to work and be creative on a daily
basis. On a business level I would
say recognition we have earned in
becoming a company that is known
worldwide.
