Craig 'honoured' to receive gong

CRAIG Greenaway of AL-KO International has been officially recognised as a rising star in Victoria's caravan industry.

His status was cemented with a young achiever award at the recent prestigious annual Hall of Fame Industry Awards and Gala Event in Melbourne.

The gong recognises his "contribution and achievements" within the State's growing caravan industry.

Craig joined AL-KO in 2011 as motorhome chassis production engineer and led its engineering and technical development, working closely with motorhome manufacturers and Fiat as the company's key motorhome cab partner.

He also guided the AL-KO team in achieving the ISO 9001 Quality Management certification and in 2017 was promoted to plant manager, assuming responsibility for all aspects of manufacturing across the AL-KO Dandenong plant.

Commenting on the award, AL-KO managing director Peter Mannfolk congratulated Craig on "this great achievement".

"It is fantastic to see Craig recognised by the industry for his outstanding contribution," he said.

"He is a valuable member of the AL-KO team and a very deserving winner of this award. AL-KO is committed to developing our staff, and we see this as being crucial for the future of the business and the industry."

Craig said he was "very honoured" to receive the award.

"I am grateful for the support and opportunities provided to me by AL-KO and my colleagues," he said.

"We have a fantastic team of people here and I am very much looking forward to the future."

AL-KO was also recognised with a Manufacturer of the Year award.
