Hugues Ripert, a passionate Le Mans racing fan, set up his Zhuhai factory for model cars in 1998. Twenty years later and with more than 20 million models sold, Spark is sought-after by collectors around the world

How many cars do you produce each year and how long does it take until a model gets out of the factory?

We have produced nearly 10,000 references and manufactured nearly one million models a year since the company's inception. We produce vehicles ranging from 1/87 to 1/8 scale; 90 percent of the vehicles are at 1/43 scale, but the 1/8 is currently very popular. The average time to create a model is five to six months, but in case of an urgent request from a manufacturer for an event, we can make cars in three months.
