Through this series, Ford South Africa reflects on the milestones that have shaped a legacy deeply intertwined with the country and its people.

From those who’ve been with us for decades to new generations embracing Ford's values, our strength lies in a deep commitment to supporting each other and uplifting our communities.”

It reflects a legacy shared by Ford’s diverse workforce, who carry forward a pride and identity rooted in the rich history of Ford’s contributions to South Africa. Each story, memory and milestone over the past century forms the foundation for the future, inspiring the next 100 years of Ford in South Africa.
