The story of Verem
Verem’s military miniature range began in 1993 with twelve models in its armoured-vehicle and logistics lines. Early releases reused Solido models, with darkened tracks among the distinguishing changes. In 1994 the range added a Renault tractor for a Coder tank transporter. Later releases included variants of military vehicles and models with added plastic or resin components. From 1997 to 2002 Verem distributed Stretton Models’ Tank Museum line, which used resin and white-metal parts on Solido and Verem bases. In 2004 the T-34 marked a further development in the joint Solido and Verem military ranges.
Solido’s official history records that Majorette acquired Solido in 1980 and that Solido merged with Heller in 1981. The specialist account says Verem disappeared when the Oulins factory closed and production moved to Asia in 2006; it also notes that some Verem models later appeared in the Solido catalogue. These changes place Verem within the wider Solido and Majorette production context, without establishing a separate incorporation date or founder for Verem.
