That new agreement was not acceptable to the Feld’s, so they are parted ways with the Sportsmobile brand. Per the old agreement the company name had to change as well. We are now operating under SMB West Vans, Inc. which it is still operating in the same Fresno location. Other current info is at smbwest.com

We are not closing or out of business as the first post suggests.

Thanks for the background info and I'm curious what designs will be offered once new orders are opened back up... sounds like July 1st per the website?

So Sportsmobile West is closing, according to the Sportsmobile Texas/Indiana company that owns the Sportsmobile franchise?

Not really as I understand it. The business operation in Fresno is running but lost its association with the Texas/Indiana company. It seems the Fresno operation is busy with existing customers or there is a legal agreement that there will be no new sales from the Fresno operation until July 1.
