A manufacturer of cars and trucks, founded by Henry Ford in 1903.  The Ford Motor Company includes the marques Ford and Lincoln, and the parts brands Motorcraft, Autolite, and Automotive Components Holdings.  Former Ford brands have included the Ford-created brands of Edsel and Mercury as well as ownership stakes in Jaguar, Land Rover, and Volvo.

History

The following section is an excerpt from Wikipedia's Ford Motor Company page on 1 May 2016, text available via the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License.

The Ford Motor Company (commonly referred to simply as Ford) is an American multinational automaker headquartered in Dearborn, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit. It was founded by Henry Ford and incorporated on June 16, 1903. The company sells automobiles and commercial vehicles under the Ford brand and most luxury cars under the Lincoln brand. Ford also owns Brazilian SUV manufacturer, Troller, and Australian performance car manufacturer FPV. In the past it has also produced tractors and automotive components. Ford owns a 2.1% stake in Mazda of Japan, an 8% stake in Aston Martin of the United Kingdom, and a 49% stake in Jiangling of China. It also has a number of joint-ventures, one in China (Changan Ford Mazda), one in Taiwan (Ford Lio Ho), one in Thailand (AutoAlliance Thailand), one in Turkey (Ford Otosan), and one in Russia (Ford Sollers). It is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and is controlled by the Ford family, although they have minority ownership.

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; by 1914 these methods were known around the world as Fordism. Ford's former UK subsidiaries Jaguar and Land Rover, acquired in 1989 and 2000 respectively, were sold to Tata Motors in March 2008. Ford owned the Swedish automaker Volvo from 1999 to 2010. In 2011, Ford discontinued the Mercury brand, under which it had marketed entry-level luxury cars in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the Middle East since 1938.

During the financial crisis at the beginning of the 21st century, it was close to bankruptcy, but it has since returned to profitability.

Ford is the second-largest U.S.-based automaker (preceded by General Motors) and the fifth-largest in the world based on 2010 vehicle sales. At the end of 2010, Ford was the fifth largest automaker in Europe. 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. In 2008, Ford produced 5.532 million automobiles and employed about 213,000 employees at around 90 plants and facilities worldwide.

The company went public in 1956 but the Ford family, through special Class B shares, still retain 40 percent voting rights.

Jim Randle, VOA News
American auto manufacturers are trying to figure out how to adapt to the accelerating pace of change as the U.S. population ages, technology improves and societal expectations evolve. This uncertain future potentially puts billions of dollars and thousands of jobs at risk as auto executives ponder what products to create and how to build and manage them. VOA's Jim Randle reports from Dearborn, Michigan.

Ford to Expand Car Production in Michigan, Scraps Plan for Mexico Plant
Zlatica Hoke, VOA News
The Michigan-based Ford Motor Company says it has cancelled plans to build a car plant in Mexico and will instead expand its Flat Rock, Michigan assembly plant, adding 700 new jobs. Ford's announcement Tuesday came a little more than two weeks before the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump, who has chastised U.S. auto makers for outsourcing jobs to the neighboring country where labor is cheaper. Trump promptly focused his criticism on Ford's rival General Motors. Zlatica Hoke reports.
