Welcome to Ford

Ford has been a significant player in the Merseyside region for over a century. The company's Halewood plant, which opened in 1963, has been a major employer in the area, providing jobs for thousands of people. The plant has produced a range of vehicles over the years, including the Ford Anglia, the Ford Capri, and the Ford Escort. Today, the plant produces the Range Rover Evoque and the Land Rover Discovery Sport, both of which are highly regarded in the automotive industry.

In addition to its manufacturing operations, Ford has also been involved in a number of community initiatives in Merseyside. The company has supported local charities and community groups, and has provided funding for a range of projects, including education and environmental initiatives. Ford has also been a major sponsor of sporting events in the region, including the Liverpool Marathon and the Merseyside Derby.

Despite the challenges faced by the automotive industry in recent years, Ford remains a key player in Merseyside. The company's commitment to the region is evident in its continued investment in the Halewood plant, which has undergone significant upgrades in recent years. With its strong reputation for quality and innovation, Ford is well positioned to continue to play a leading role in the Merseyside economy for many years to come.
