About Us

Meet the team at Moutere Caravans:

 


Corinne & Frank

Corinne and Frank Lindemann-Roth moved to New Zealand in 2007 from Switzerland with their two children. Before their relocation, Frank began his career in Switzerland as a car mechanic, eventually transitioning into car sales. Corinne’s professional background includes roles as a customs officer and a multilingual events coordinator. Their passion for caravanning ignited in Switzerland when they renovated a 1970s German caravan to use for family holidays in Switzerland, Italy and France.

In 2010, after settling in New Zealand, they founded Moutere Caravans Ltd., initially focusing on the import, sale and hire of German caravans. As the business grew, they expanded their offerings to include parts sales and repairs. In 2017, they ceased caravan imports and shifted their focus solely to European caravan parts, accessories, and repairs, transforming Moutere Caravans into the thriving business it is today.

Corinne, Frank, and their dedicated team are deeply passionate about their work, consistently delivering exceptional Swiss customer service characterized by efficiency and meticulous attention to detail. They are committed to fair business practices, outstanding customer support, and integrity, ensuring every interaction is honest and reliable.

When not at work, Corinne and Frank enjoy gardening, taking long walks on the beach, spending quality time with family, and exploring new destinations.

Lukas

Lukas Lindemann has been a part of Moutere Caravans from a young age but officially joined the team full-time in late 2021 after completing his Bachelor of Aviation Management degree at Massey University in Palmerston North.

Growing up around caravans, Lukas developed a deep understanding of both the products and the industry, making him an invaluable resource for caravan parts and accessories knowledge.

Lukas's primary role involves assisting in the office and shop. Aside from this, Lukas also manages the online side of our business including our website and online shop, most of which he has set up and designed himself.
