The Influencer Award honors individuals who, by their presence and authentic implementation of ideas, have created widely held business practices and wholesale improvement for the industry
Ron Breymier of MHARVIC – Indiana Associations
For 27 years, Ron Breymier has worked to protect the RV and manufactured housing industries, as the executive director of and principle lobbyist for the Indiana Manufactured Housing Association – Recreation Vehicle Industry Council, and through myriad volunteer efforts. He negotiated a change to state law that allowed the transport of 40-foot-long RVs and 16-foot-wide manufactured homes on Indiana highways. Breymier, in the last four years alone, has helped pass 27 pieces of state legislation that help improve and protect the industry. He serves on the board for the RV/MH Heritage Foundation in Elkhart and serves as treasurer for the Midwest Manufactured Housing Federation, which is responsible for the 65-year run of the annual Louisville Manufactured Housing Show. He is also a member of the Governmental Affairs Society of Indiana, has worked with the business school at the University of Indiana on a paper that positioned manufactured housing as a solution to the state’s affordable housing challenges, and helped organize the Future of Housing Institute at his alma mater, Ball State University. Breymier is the recipient of multiple other awards, including the Sagamore of the Wabash award from the governor of Indiana and the Jim Moore Excellence in Communication Award from MHI.
What do you believe are Influencer Award winner Ron Breymier’s greatest achievements?
Ron’s list of professional accomplishments and accolades is lengthy: RV/MH Hall of Fame inductee, State Director for U.S. Senator Dan Quayle, Sagamore of The Wabash recipient, RV/MH Heritage Foundation board member, RVIA’s David J. Humphreys RV Industry Unity Award winner, Executive Director of IMHA-RVIC (twice!), and the list goes on and on. Despite his awards and tremendous successes over the years, I feel Ron’s greatest achievement is that he is a true family man who carries himself with grace and dignity.

What are the award winner’s personal skills or character traits that you feel have contributed most to these successes?
Ron’s amazing passion to fully understand the value of affordable housing is essential to his success. He has been one of Indiana’s strongest advocates, leading the charge to preserve and protect manufactured housing and access to it. In fact, his ability to recognize the challenges has transcended his passion on the national level by seeing the country’s housing crisis and realizing that manufactured housing is the solution. He works tirelessly to ensure that we pass good legislation and avoid those bills making it harder to have access. Ron’s “true to his word” approach has made him a trusted resource for legislators, which has helped us continue to make manufactured housing a great choice for low to moderate income buyers in this environment.
