Let's stop dancing around the elephant in the room. The Australian caravan industry is facing a massive turning point.

With rising operational costs, shifting consumer sentiment, and buyers getting nervous about market stability, standard sales pitches aren't cutting it anymore. Buyers aren't just asking about off-road suspension or luxury kitchens. They are looking you dead in the eye and asking: "Will your brand be here to support me for the long haul?"

The manufacturers that win the next decade won't just sell steel chassis and polished interiors—they will offer total buyer confidence, an exclusive owner community, and somewhere affordable to actually tow their bloody van.

That is where COA comes in. We are here to save the day.

It's simple: COA Housing Charity Ltd is an ACNC-registered health promotion and housing charity built on a self-sustaining social enterprise model.

We deploy off-grid modular sanctuary pods and commercial caravans to solve regional housing distress and provide immediate shelter for families in crisis. But to deploy those assets at scale and fund our charity without relying solely on government handouts, we build strong regional revenue engines alongside our property model.

This is how camping powers the charity:

• Unlocking Land via Camping: By helping private farmers, rural property owners, and farmstays secure bulk $20M Public Liability insurance through our COA Insure division, we give them the legal green light to open their paddocks to campers safely and affordably.
• COA Commons Estates (The 90/10 Land Model): When COA negotiates master leases on strategic rural properties to create full COA Commons Estates, we execute our 90/10 model: 90% of the estate stays dedicated to primary production, regenerative farming, and high-yield farmstay camping, while 10% is set aside for COA off-grid emergency housing pods.
• 100% Social Impact: Every membership fee and policy commission generated through COA Insure goes directly back into COA Housing Charity Ltd to build, purchase, and place more crisis housing assets.

When people camp on COA-accredited land or within our estates, their holiday directly funds emergency housing for Australians in need.

Here is the dirty secret of the RV industry: selling a $100k+ caravan is easy, but finding a place to park it is getting harder by the day.

Caravan park booking fees are through the roof, and private landowners have traditionally only had one choice: relying on the basic insurance offered by major booking platforms, which doesn't actually cover a landowner if they charge a fee for campers on their property.

If people have nowhere to camp, van sales stall. When you unlock new destinations through COA's charity framework, van sales skyrocket.

COA is launching the National Regional Resilience Roadshow, starting right across regional NSW and heading nationwide.

We are hitting the road to meet face-to-face with councils, farmers, caravan park owners, and private landowners to:

• Unlock New Private Camping: Turn private paddocks into low-cost, legal off-grid campsites.
• Build Emergency Pod Estates: Secure master leases for new COA Commons Estates and help landowners and parks use planning exemptions to set up off-grid modular housing pods for workers and crisis housing.
• Open Up Australia: Create hundreds of new, exclusive spots for Aussies to tow their vans.

Here is the mandate: We need ONE forward-thinking caravan manufacturer to partner with us and supply the official caravan for this national tour.

This isn't just a marketing exercise—it's a massive, long-term commercial pipeline for the manufacturer who steps up:

• Short-Term Payout (December Funding): COA currently has active, high-level infrastructure grant applications (including NSW Club Grants Category 3 and Regional Resiliency funding) undergoing review. These funding pipelines are scheduled to pay out in December 2026, completely covering the tour caravan payout.
• Long-Term Production Pipeline (Ongoing Caravan Purchases): Partnering on this roadshow unlocks an ongoing, fully funded stream of caravan purchases. As COA expands across regional Australia, we actively purchase caravans and mobile accommodation units to deploy directly on-site as emergency crisis housing and worker accommodation under statutory planning exemptions.
• The Preferred Supplier Advantage: By becoming our foundational roadshow partner, your brand becomes COA's preferred manufacturing partner nationwide—securing a recurring, institutional purchase pipeline that keeps your factory lines moving regardless of retail market swings.

If your brand steps up to partner on this tour, you don't just get your logo on a van—you become the official hero of the Australian touring movement:

• Massive National Exposure: Your caravan becomes the official mobile headquarters for a high-profile national tour backed by regional mayors, council leaders, and national media.
• Exclusive Factory-Branded Camps: You get first dibs on setting up official, factory-branded campsites on the brand-new private land network and COA Commons Estates we unlock during the tour. Imagine telling your buyers: "Buy our van, and get exclusive access to private camping spots nobody else can touch."
• Unbeatable Consumer Trust: By backing an ACNC-registered charity that is actively fixing the housing and camping crisis, you instantly prove your brand is structured, stable, and built for the future. You aren't just selling vans—you are building the destinations.

Because COA has already done the heavy lifting with APRA-authorised and A+ rated global underwriters, private land insurance is no longer a roadblock for your own caravan brand club, owner clubs or land partners:

• Primitive Dry Camps (From $1,200/yr): Basic off-grid private land camping.
• Farmstays & Petting Zoos (From $1,600/yr): $20M Public Liability covering animal interactions and family farmstays.
• Wet Camps & Waterways (From $3,600/yr): Covers sites with dam access, creeks, and boat ramps.
• Caravan Parks & Adventure Hubs (Custom Quotes): Full coverage for full-scale commercial parks, 4x4 tracks, and outdoor venues.

Stop watching potential buyers walk away because they're worried about where to camp or whether the industry is stable.

Partner with the only charity and risk gatekeeper actively opening up new places to camp across Australia while securing a guaranteed, recurring sales stream for your manufacturing floor.
