Pest Analysis On Ford - 10 Hours Ago
The Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) is an American multinational corporation based in Dearborn, Michigan, a
suburb of Detroit. The automaker was founded by Henry Ford and incorporated on June 16, 1903. In
addition to the Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury brands, Ford also owns a small stake in Mazda in Japan and Aston
Martin in the UK. Ford's former UK subsidiaries Jaguar and Land Rover were sold to Tata Motors of India in
March 2008. In 2010 Ford sold Volvo to Geely Automobile.[5] Ford will discontinue the Mercury brand at the
end of 2010.
Ford introduced methods for large-scale manufacturing of cars and large-scale management of an industrial
workforce using elaborately engineered manufacturing sequences typified by moving assembly lines. Henry
Ford's methods came to be known around the world as Fordism by 1914.
Ford is currently the second largest automaker in the U.S. and the fourth-largest in the world based on
number of vehicles sold annually, directly behind Volkswagen Group.[6] In 2007, Ford fell from second to
third in US annual vehicle sales for the first time in 56 years, behind only General Motors and Toyota.
However, Ford occasionally outsells Toyota in shorter periods (most recently, during the summer months of
2009). By the end of 2009, Ford was the third largest automaker in Europe (behind Volkswagen and PSA
Peugeot Citroën).[7] Ford is the eighth-ranked overall American-based company in the 2010 Fortune 500
list, based on global revenues in 2009 of $118.3 billion.[8] In 2008, Ford produced 5.532 million
automobiles[9] and employed about 213,000 employees at around 90 plants and facilities worldwide. During
the automotive crisis, Ford's worldwide unit volume dropped to 4.817 million in 2009. Despite the adverse
conditions, Ford ended 2009 with a net profit of $2.7 billion.[10] Starting in 2007, Ford received more initial
quality survey awards from J. D. Power and Associates than any other automaker. Five of Ford's vehicles
ranked at the top of their categories[11] and fourteen vehicles ranked in the top three.[12]The Ford Motor
