Monaco is a tiny city state located in Europe. A famous name in Monaco is Pastor — the Pastor family has been residing in Monaco for over a century, and has helped develop a significant amount of the country.
Gildo Pastor has always had an interest in cars therefore buying the car company Venturi in 2001. Pastor decided to focus on creating electric-powered sports vehicles, which came as a surprise to many people. Back in the early 2000’s no one would have thought that this combination could work.
The company Venturi sells a very limited amount of cars. I don’t understand why Pastor bought the company, as in the time when he purchased the company, it was not in a good state. He bought it so that he could improve its state, however I do not think that it was worth his time and money because to this day, Venturi still only produces their cars in the hundreds or less range. It is important to note that Monaco is almost so small that you would not need a car. The brand is also very exclusive to Monaco, and has not branched out globally despite interest from other countries such as America.
