Ford Vietnam was established in 1995, and is a joint venture between Ford Motor Company (75%) and Song Cong Diesel Company (25%). Ford's investment is credited with helping industrialize Vietnam.[1] Ford Vietnam has its headquarters in Hanoi with an office in Ho Chi Minh City and an assembly plant located in Hai Duong province - 55 km east from Hanoi, with the capacity of 14,000 vehicles per year until a 2018 expansion.[2] In January 2020, Ford announced increased investment that would further expand capacity to 40,000 vehicles per year.[3]

Ford Vietnam is the first automotive manufacturer in Vietnam receiving ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and QS9000 accreditation, ISO/TS16949 - 2002.[citation needed]
