* Over the last 15 years of its existence RIVA models has gained a good reputation and a fair amount of regular customers. Its models have not only introduced a new philosophy of construction and modern design but have also won a number of prestigious competitions.

* The RIVA models brand (formerly known as Modely Rival) can be found all over the world – in Europe, North and South America, Australia, Asia and even in Africa. RIVA models is proud of its constant development, creative inventions and outstanding sport results.

* Throughout its history RIVA models has worked closely with more than 10 employees carefully chosen by its founder Palo Lishak. Apart from making the actual models the company has also focused on electroflight – not only “in action” but also through numerous publications e.g. articles in Czech and Slovak model magazines, independetly published E-pages newsletter or constantly updated F5-magazine on the company website. They all have their regular readers and have often been quoted in other similar publications.

* 15 years in a life of a company is not a long time but the RIVA models founder’s 60th birthday was a good opportunity to make some radical changes in its management which is exactly what happened not so long ago.

* The production and sale of the models is now run by our Modelclub Dubnica. They have also introduced new technologies (computer operated polystyrol foam cutting, CNC milled parts) and people to increase the production.

* The development of new models is still in the hands of the RIVA models founder but its future depends on you – our regular, new or potential clients.

* We will do our very best to come up with lots of interesting offers.
