Lazydays buys Tennessee RV company

Despite what Lazydays described as an unusual and quirky economy, the Tampa-based RV retailer has bought a Knoxville, Tennessee-based RV store that will bring in $40 million a year, company officials told investors during an earnings call on Friday.

The store, Buddy Gregg RVs, is located in Knoxville and will replace a Lazydays lot in Maryville, Tennessee, south of Knoxville, that had to close because the Tennessee Department of Transportation is expanding the Alcoa Highway.

The Knoxville store will be rebranded to Lazydays RV of Knoxville at Turkey Creek.
