One of the largest manufacturers of motorhomes and caravans in Europe, the listed company Hymer AG owns the brands: Burstner; Carado; Eriba; Hymer; Laika; Niesmann + Bischoff; as well as camping equipment wholesale Movera. ==History== Alfons Hymer, the father of Erwin Hymer, had operated a repair shop in Bad Waldsee since 1923. In 1956, Erich Bachem made the first caravan to a customer order, and in 1957 designer Erwin Hymer created the prototype "Eriba" range, the original Trolls. As a result, that same year the two formed the new distribution company Hymer AG, and in 1958 the company began production of the Eriba-Troll range, which is still in production today. The first Hymer motorhome was produced in 1961, the Caravano. During the mid-1960s, Dornier Flugzeugwerke and Hymer developed the Dornier Delta II, a development of th earlier Zündapp Janus. The vehicle could carry up to six passengers and offered two sleeping places for camping, but was never developed beyond the prototype stage. However, from 1971, serial production of motorcaravans started under the Hymer brand. In 1980, the Hymer and Eriba companies formally merged, before also merging with Dethleffs and TEC to form CMC. Since 1990, the company became publicly traded. In 1995, the company became the first caravan manufacturer to become ISO 9001 certified. In 1996, Hymer took over Niesmann + Bischoff GmbH, and in 1998 added Burstner. In the same year the camping accessories wholesaler Movera was founded. In 2000, Hymer AG acquired the Italian motorhome manufacturer Laika. The 100,000th leisure vehicle left the factory in October 2004. In 2005/6 Hymer and Dethleffs established of Capron Ltd., which distributes vehicles under the Carado and Sunlight brands. On 29 October 2011, the €17 million Erwin Hymer Museum opened in Bad Waldsee.〔Schwäbische Zeitung: (Hymer-Museum: SZ-Leser in geheimer Mission ) vom 21. Oktober 2011, eingesehen am 29.
