Our Purpose

Ford exists for one purpose: to help build a better world where every person is free to move and pursue their dreams. We are committed to making this purpose evident in every part of our business, from the way we source our materials, to the vehicles we create, to the services we provide, to the interactions we have with our customers, employees, and communities. Our purpose has set us apart as a company for more than a century and it guides our vision for the future.

Sustainability Strategy

Our sustainability strategy is to make a positive contribution to society and the environment. It is at the heart of our company, and is the driving force to help us achieve our Sustainability Aspirations below. We aim to reach carbon neutrality no later than 2050, backed by science-based targets, by focusing on three areas that account for approximately 95% of our CO2 emissions — our vehicles, our operations, and our supply chain.

Sustainable Financing Framework

Ford’s Sustainable Financing Framework – the first fully integrated framework of its kind covering both an automotive OEM and its captive finance company – covers funding of environmental and social projects through various instruments including unsecured debt and securitization transactions. It guides how projects are evaluated, selected, managed, and reported, and achieved the highest-possible ‘Advanced’ rating from second party opinion provider, Vigeo Eiris. Net proceeds raised can be invested in four different areas: clean transportation, clean manufacturing, making lives better, and community revitalization.
