All
American Group Acquires Exclusive Rights to Modular Home Designs from Wick
Building Systems
Elkhart, Ind. —All American
Group announces the license of intellectual property from the modular home
division of Wick Building Systems located in Marshfield, WI. Through this
transaction, All American Group has the exclusive rights to all of Wick’s
designs for three distinct modular home product lines under the brand names of
Artcraft Homes®,
Marshfield Homes® and
Rollohome®. Wick
is also referring its network of builders to All American Group for future
orders of modular homes produced with Wick’s industry leading
designs.
Wick is
exiting the modular homes business to focus on a more profitable core business
with its Wick Buildings division. They traditionally marketed modular homes
through an independent builder network, serving 11 states in the north central
region of the United States.
“This is
a win-win for All American and Wick’s modular home builders,” stated Rick
Bedell, President of All American Homes, LLC. “We intend to continue
offering these product lines to the Wick independent builder network, through
the All American Homes modular manufacturing facilities. This will provide an
immediate and uninterrupted supply of Wick designed homes to their current
builder base, as well as add to production throughput for the All American
manufacturing facilities.”
