1970

The registered trade mark Road Ranger® was established.

1990

The foundation of the trading company Road Ranger GmbH und Co KG responsible for the growth of sales in the markets of Western Europe. The establishment of Dr Höhn Sp. z o.o. in Ostroda as a company of the Group, at that time responsible for the performance and quality of only two production processes: the painting and installation of camping hardtops. Launching the hardtop production line in the Ostroda factory. At the end of the 1990s, one of the first key moments in the company took place, i.e. signing the contract with Mitsubishi Motors Europe for the supply of original hardtops for the Mitsubishi L200 model.

Due to the model change in Mitsubishi L200, a new model of original hardtop named DH02/DH03 was developed as part of the continuation of the contract with the European headquarters of Mitsubishi. In the same year, at the request of the European headquarters of Nissan Europe, we started the project for the development of a new hardtop, which was crowned by the success of signing the multi-year contract with Nissan Europe for the supply of original hardtops for Nissan Navara D40.

Due to the spreading world crisis, which had a severe impact on the automotive sector, these two years were also trying for our Group. Thanks to the commitment and loyalty of our employees, we managed to survive that difficult period.  What is more, those two years proved to be a breakthrough for our production process, because we introduced a number of innovative solutions and principles concerning the functioning of our factory in compliance with the latest international standards, which have been applicable so far.
