In the wake of luxury caravan manufacturer Zone RV's collapse, authorities have launched an investigation into fraud allegations against the company's director, David Biggar.
The Sunshine Coast-based company entered voluntary administration in December 2025, owing creditors approximately $42 million.
Queensland Police have confirmed they are investigating a fraud complaint related to Mr. Biggar. The investigation is ongoing, and further details have not been disclosed at this time.
Administrators from Cor Cordis have indicated that Zone RV was likely trading insolvent since September 2024, with potential insolvency dating back to August 2023. This raises serious concerns about the company's financial management and the decisions made by its leadership.
Customers who had made significant progress payments for caravans that were never delivered are particularly affected. Many are seeking accountability and hoping for legal action against those responsible for the company's financial mismanagement.
The outcome of the investigation and any subsequent legal proceedings will have significant implications for the Australian caravan industry, potentially leading to increased scrutiny and regulatory measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
