The business was formed in 1990 by two modellers who exhibited a layout of Blackpool seafront with working trams, illuminations etc. and the Faller Car System, whereby buses, lorries and cars move under their own power along the roadway.
Visitors asked where the items featured could be obtained, and after a while it was decided to incorporate a sales stand alongside the layout, which proved very successful.
As time progressed and with the partners in the business now living in different parts of England and unable to exhibit the layout, the sales side was expanded into mail order, but still attending exhibitions in both north and south of the country.
