History
In 2002, Rockport Commercial Vehicles was founded in Elkhart, Indiana, as part of Forest River’s vision to build a superior commercial vehicle. Our humble beginnings started with just a few Ford cutaway chassis and has since grown to become Ford’s largest bailment pool for Parcel Delivery Vehicle chassis. Now Rockport has one of the most extensive selections of chassis configurations in the industry with inventories of Ford, Chevrolet, GMC and Ram cutaway chassis.
In 2015, Rockport added a second manufacturing facility in Ocilla, Georgia, in a quest to better serve the ever-growing demand for the Rockport, Cargoport, Workport, Parcelport and Work‑N‑Tow product lines.
