Ford has maintained a high-profile presence in the global automotive business since the early years of the 20th century, with an Australian subsidiary established in 1925. Initially assembling Model Ts, then Model As, and later a range of British models, Ford Australia produced cars and engines in earnest at two main plants in Victoria from the early 1960s, until local production ceased in 2016. Operating as a pure importer, the ‘Blue Oval’ now focuses mainly on its top-selling Ranger ute, Everest large SUV and Mustang muscle car. Fun fact: Ford Australia has sponsored the Geelong 'Cats' Australian Football League team since 1925, which is claimed to be the longest running sporting sponsorship in the world.
