The SAVIEM SG5: A Giant of the French Road
The SAVIEM SG5 was launched in the early 1960s as part of French manufacturer SAVIEM's modernization strategy. This heavy-duty truck was designed to meet the growing needs of long-distance freight transport, at a time when the French economy was experiencing an unprecedented period of expansion.
Equipped with a powerful engine and a spacious cabin for its time, the SG5 stood out for its legendary robustness and ability to carry heavy loads. Its reinforced chassis and efficient transmission made it the ideal companion for professional hauliers traveling through the nascent French motorway system.
This model enjoyed notable commercial success, quickly establishing itself as a benchmark in the heavy transport sector. French companies adopted it en masse, helping to forge the French automotive industry's reputation for excellence in the field of commercial vehicles.
SAVIEM: The Heritage of French Excellence
Founded in 1955 by the merger of several historic French manufacturers, SAVIEM (Société Anonyme de Véhicules Industriels et d'Équipements Mécaniques) embodied the French ambition to compete with the major European manufacturers of industrial vehicles. In the 1960s, during the development of the SG5, the brand was undergoing a period of intense technical innovation.
The company benefited from the combined expertise of Renault, Somua, and Latil, creating a unique synergy in French industry. This union allowed SAVIEM to develop advanced technologies for the time, particularly in terms of engines and driving comfort. The brand was particularly successful in heavy-duty vehicles , a segment in which it excelled.
SAVIEM left a deep mark on the French industrial landscape until its integration into the Renault Véhicules Industriels group in 1978, leaving behind a considerable technical heritage that still influences the design of modern utility vehicles today.
A Memorable Advertising Epic
The partnership between SAVIEM trucks and SANDERS products represents one of the most successful combinations between transport and the French food industry. SANDERS, a specialist in animal feed since 1910, revolutionized the distribution of its products with a fleet of trucks in instantly recognizable colors.
These vehicles, true traveling ambassadors of the Breton brand, traveled through rural France during the Trente Glorieuses, delivering livestock breeders to the most remote farms. Their passage was eagerly awaited and celebrated, marking the rhythm of French agricultural life. SANDERS drivers enjoyed an exceptional reputation, combining professionalism and friendliness.
This collaboration perfectly symbolized the French economic boom of the time, when national companies flourished thanks to an efficient distribution network. SAVIEM trucks in SANDERS colors quickly became icons of French road heritage , witnesses to an era when French industry shone across its territory.
Even today, these vehicles evoke nostalgia for an industrious and optimistic France, where each region contributed to the collective effort to modernize the country. Their image remains etched in the collective memory as a symbol of a bygone but founding era.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
