Steve Whittington - Page 2

 Steve Whittington I am originally from Thompson, Manitoba and now live in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. I am an avid mountain climber having climbed 40 mountains including four of the seven summits of the world, such as Mt. Kilimanjaro and Denali. I most recently lead a team to climb to the, so far, unreached peak of Mount Saskatchewan in the Yukon and will be leading a team to climb Everest in April, 2013. In preparation for a climb I undertake intensive workout regimens and follow strict diets to prepare myself for the rigours of being on a mountain. Between climbs I have a more relaxed workout to maintain my general health and that I can fit into my busy schedule as Flaman’s VP of marketing.

Lessons from NATDA

Every year, Flaman Trailers travels to the North American Trailer Dealer Association (NATDA) tradeshow to learn about changes in the industry

So You Want a Concession Trailer?

At Flaman trailers we have offered concession trailers for some time. With the addition of the Wells Cargo line, we can really offer quality concession trailers from a company that knows the industry requirements.  We do receive requests for quotes for a concession trailer and they range from pointed requests such as “How much?” to more detailed inquiries.

How to Choose Which Trailer to Buy

I have been in the trailer industry for a long time: 3 years as a marketing consultant to the industry, 6 years as General Manager of a trailer manufacturer and 4 years running retail dealerships. Despite all this experience, I still get overwhelmed by the diversity of choice offered to a customer in today’s market place. 

Snow = Savings

Well, we finally have snow!

So many Sled Trailers but what should you choose?

This season the diversity of choice for a sled trailer can be daunting. There are many brands, different dealers, options and types to choose from. 

Sled Trailer Season Has Started!

The days are getting  colder, Halloween has come and gone and this means Sled Trailer season has started!

Toy hauler Camper Trailer from Nash Car Trailers

In many ways this product is nothing new, but this product is part of new specialization occurring with trailer products. Let me explain.

Are hydraulic trailers the next big trend?

The trailer industry has traditionally been a fairly static industry.  Take the decade from 1998 to 2008: there were few developments other than more wide-spread use of enclosed trailers

Utility Trailers do not have to be poor quality

Often the perception is that utility trailers are the bottom rung of the trailer world when it comes to build construction. Granted, the $899 bolt together group of products with 8” tires at the big box stores are well... Garbage

Congratulations!

On February 24th 2011, Ryan Sailer, General Manager of Southland Trailer Corp. won the NATM (National Association of Trailer Manufacturers) Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award.
