A Model Business

Since its establishment in 1997, West End Models has been the go-to haven for model enthusiasts, catering to seasoned hobbyists and those stepping into modelling for the first time. The commitment is to provide everything you need to create a captivating miniature empire that genuinely captures the essence of the real thing.

The company has recently transformed two of its spacious lower-level rooms to cater to the needs of both novice and professional kit makers with the introduction of an innovative plastic kit room. The product range encompasses click kits (eliminating the need for glue) to more intricate die-cast models. The expansion has now positioned West End Models as the largest model shop in the area between Manchester and Leeds.
