Kampgrounds of America, Inc.

PROFILE Kampgrounds of America (KOA) won't win any spelling bees, but that doesn't stop this kompany from running the largest network of kommercial kampsites in North America. There are more than 500 KOA campgrounds across the US, Canada, Mexico, and Japan; only about a dozen are owned by KOA and the rest are franchised. The campgrounds feature RV hookups, showers, laundry facilities, swimming pools, and those all-important rest rooms. Some campgrounds also offer Internet access and KOA's Kamping Kottages and Kabins. KOA was founded in 1962 by a group of Billings, Montana businessmen looking to cash in on campers' need for campsites on their way to the Seattle World's Fair.
