Winnebago Industries grew from a $100 bank stake to a half billion

Forest City Iowa is the home of Winnebago Industries led by John K Hanson who took control in 1959. The company grew from a small local operation to a fast rising national stock, with 450 to 475 motor homes produced weekly and prices from 6700 to 20000 dollars. The 1964 fire and 1968 stock offering transformed the firm into a public company with no debts and a rising share value.
