Beyond semantics, the two locals to the Goulburn Valley share a deep commitment to providing a premium service to their customers on all things caravans.
Peter Don, along with his son Keelan Don and business partner Kevin Gribble, is set to take over the reins at Cobram Caravans.
They say good things come in threes - and, with Keelan and Kevin onboard, Peter Don is excited to inject new life - and longevity - into the respected business.
Many locals will remember the business first opened doors one bright day in 1972. Founder Peter Ennals quickly gained a reputation for his knowledge, customer service and expertise across all types of caravans.
New co-owner Peter Don, who comes with a wealth of knowledge and experience as the owner of the successful Donway Caravans, Shepparton, is excited about the chance to take Cobram Caravans to new highs.

He was driving past the store one auspicious August day last year when he spotted a For Sale sign out the front.
He popped in and met his counterpart. The two got on like a house on fire.
“After I made enquiries about it, he [Peter] said, ‘Peter, I want you to have it because I know you’re a good businessman, and I’d like you to purchase it,” Peter Don later recalled.
For want of avoiding cliché, the rest is history.
So what can customers - new and returning - expect?
In short, they can expect the same standard of excellence and service. But with even more choice in on and off-road caravans, Peter Don said Cobram Caravans will be bigger and better.
The trio intends to keep Regal brand caravans, while hoping to be able to soon offer the popular Eden Caravans. Both reputable brands are locally manufactured in Victoria.
Peter, Keelan and Kevin will also bring back on-site service and repair, and install a new front fence.
And with owners as passionate about excellent customer service as Peter, Keelan and Kevin, Cobram Caravans is in safe hands.
