Former teaching assistant turns caravan into mobile nail salon in Côtes-d'Armor

Trigano's third-quarter sales rose 1.6% year-over-year to €1,162.2 million, with nine-month sales up 4.3%. Caravans posted strong growth, while motorhomes faced supply chain challenges. The company maintains a positive full-year outlook, supported by robust market fundamentals and ongoing share buybacks.

On the morning of June 24, a car towing a caravan crashed on the A11 near Cormes, Sarthe. Three people sustained minor injuries, and traffic was halted for nearly an hour and a half.

Due to extreme heat, only two motorhomes are parked at the municipal site in Château-Gontier (Mayenne) instead of the usual 50. Most motorhomes lack air conditioning in the living area, and parking areas offer no shade. Owners complain about high camping fees (around €40 per night) compared to parking areas (around €15).

With an expected influx of 30,000 to 60,000 spectators over four days of the French Cycling Championships, three temporary parking lots with a total capacity of 2,850 spaces have been set up in the Vals du Dauphiné region. All are within a 15-minute walk from the city center. A dedicated area for motorhomes is available on Chemin du Pouyou, with an additional zone near Béjui in La Chapelle-de-la-Tour.

From 11 to 15 November 2026, Eurexpo Lyon will host the first edition of CAP Mobile, a trade fair dedicated to motorhomes, camper vans, and leisure vehicles. Over 300 vehicles will be displayed across 10,000 m², featuring market novelties, accessories, and travel services. Organizers expect more than 10,000 visitors. Tickets go on sale in September 2026.

The mayor of Batz-sur-Mer announced a series of measures to prevent illegal caravan installations. The commune will refuse all requests for temporary or permanent electrical connections and will strengthen water supply controls. Works have been carried out on municipal land, details of which are not disclosed to maintain effectiveness.
