Light trailers, camper trailers and specialty trailers are moving from the Baltics to the USA at a growing pace. The market rewards clever design.
Customs data shows regular shipments from Baltic trailer makers: light trailers, motorcycle and boat trailers, and a growing camper-trailer segment. The US market is enormous and local production is focused on large series: special solutions and European compact design find their buyer.
The small camper trailer is a phenomenon in its own right: Americans' interest in compact camping is growing, and European use of space is a selling argument there.
In the US there are federal FMVSS requirements for lighting, braking and marking, and the manufacturer must have an NHTSA registration and the right to issue VIN codes. This is paperwork that is doable, but it has to be done before the first sale.
Registration practices that differ from state to state mean a good dealer is worth their weight in gold.
The key to this category is dealers and specialized importers who know the registration back office. Our data shows who is already importing European trailers: the next brand in their portfolio could be yours.
