EXPLORE OUR TRAVEL DIVISION FACTORY
Our History
General Coach Canada was established in 1950, a time when life was slower and summer meant family road trips. General Coach commenced production by building a custom 16’ “Beaver” travel trailer, launching family adventures into a new domain.
At our core, General Coach is a 100% Made in Canada, family operation. In 2010, the Faulkner name took ownership of the company, which remains in the small community of Hensall, Ontario. We bring our family values and personal promise to work every day. Roger Faulkner boasts the title of president and is committed to “servicing our customer, no matter what”. His son Chris is right behind him with innovative ideas that are appealing to a new market and moving the industry forward.
We’ve expanded our horizons far past small family trailers and now produce one of a kind park model RVs, rental cabins, mobile homes, theatrical trailers and exclusive commercial units. We proudly offer our customers the best warranty in the industry, along with a service department that strives to go beyond the expected.
