Bonetti Campers was established in 2012 by Stefano Bonetti. With his extensive knowledge in 4wd Camper Conversion as Master Mechanic in Switzerland working in different many fields. Including 4wd Camper Conversion in automotive technologies, from cars, trucks buses, construction vehicles to recreational vehicles.
Working on recreational vehicles begun when he moved away from Switzerland to California in 2006. This insight into the RV technologies of the US market opened up a way to Australia, where he worked for KEA Campers as National Fleet Operations Manager. After a short work assignment at KEA Campers in Namibia as General Manager, which gave him a great insight into the African RV market and off road conditions for a 4wd Camper Conversion.
