Kembo, UK

According to Robert Newson (quoted by many other sources), there does not seem to have been a company called KEMBO. There is evidence on the internet in business databases that Kembo was a trade mark registered in 1948 by LOVELL BROS. & JARDINE who specialized in die castings in zinc base alloys and aluminium. They were established at 60 Priory Road, Southpark, Reigate, Surrey and made only 4-5 different model vehicle toys. It is thought they may have worked with KEMLOW on their Scammell lorry, and some describe the Police Car as a "Jowett" while others refer to a Packard saloon being in their range. It is thought they exited from the toy making business in the early 1950s, although they continued to work in the field of die-cast engineering for some time after.

The list of models produced includes:
  • Saloon
  • Saloon with motor
  • Police car with loudspeaker
  • Police car with loudspeaker and motor
  • Scammell breakdown truck
  • Scammell articulated truck
  • Scammell articulated flat truck
  • Excavator
