Ultra-Fab Products, Inc., operates its business with a very simple, yet highly meaningful creed: “RVing is meant to be enjoyable . . . We’re making it that way!”
Co-owned by brothers Craig Searer (president) and Darryl Searer (CEO) and based in Elkhart, Ind., Ultra-Fab began in 1958 as a metal fabricator and producer of products for other companies, but its direction changed in 1991 when it expand
ed into its own product lines and brand names to accommodate the RV and trailer industry. Combined, the Searer brothers have more than 65 years of experience in the RV industry, and Darryl, who has 40-plus years in the RV arena, was recently inducted into the RV Hall of Fame. Other key veteran members of the Ultra-Fab staff include Brian Allred, vice president of sales and marketing (25 years); Dave Busch, vice president of operations (20 years); and Chad Vannauker, national sales manager (20-plus years). The experience among the leadership of Ultra-Fab runs the gamut, including and not limited to that of suppliers, dealers, distributors, OEM and banking. In fact, Busch spent 10 years as a bank senior vice president, financing many in the RV industry.
