Starting our in 1993, Search Impex was first set up to supply customised promotional model vehicles to the transport and freight forwarding industries. Our first ever die cast release was for Ryder Van & Truck Rental and was a Ford Transit van. It was created for us in the United Kingdom by Lledo at their factory in Enfield, but since 1999, the factory stopped creating models and the Lledo brand was acquired by Corgi and Lledo models are now produced in China. More orders from Ryder Van and Truck Rental for box trucks followed, leading us to work with overseas manufacturers, including Dutch and German manufacturers.
