“We are set to end our Ford Island Conquest nationwide roll-out on a high note as we hold our last and biggest FIC event this year back in Metro Manila and in one of the busiest commercial hubs in the city,” shared Mike Breen, Managing Director, Ford Philippines, said.

“This special edition of our FIC is also part of our 25th anniversary celebration festivities, and we’re excited to extend these huge deals to our customers as our way of thanking them for their support for the last 25 years. We hope that through these offers, we can make the purchase and ownership experience easier and hassle-free and further grow the Ford family in the country,” Breen added.

Ford Philippines has now been operating in the nation for 25 years, and it is a clear indication of the company's dedication to supporting the growth of the domestic auto sector with a broad range of Ford products and services.

The Philippine-based subsidiary of Ford Motor Company, Ford Motor Company Philippines, Inc. (FMCPI), was founded in 1997. The first Ford car to be sold in the nation, the Expedition, was sold by FMCPI in a total of 97 units at the end of the year.

Since that time, Ford Philippines has continued to be a significant force in the market. In 2012, Ford Philippines changed its structure to become a national sales and distribution subsidiary, which now manages all sales, service, and marketing initiatives for Ford automobiles in the nation.

In the Philippines, Ford has sold close to 400,000 cars over the past 25 years, including the Club Wagon, EcoSport, Escape, Everest, Expedition, Explorer, Explorer Sport Trac, F150, Lynx, Mustang, Ranger, Territory, Lincoln Town Car, and Transit.

The automaker has expanded its dealer network to 49 locations across the nation in order to better meet the sales and servicing needs of its steadily expanding customer base.

Ford has moreover accumulated a lot of accolades for its automobiles throughout the years from various awarding organizations. The Ford Everest, Explorer, Expedition, Mustang, Ranger, Ranger Raptor, and Territory are some of the most honored cars in the company's whole lineup as well as in their individual markets.

Ford has also been cited for its corporate social responsibility programs such as Driving Skills for Life (DSFL), Operation Better World, COVID-19 Relief Program, and Automotive Technician Scholarship Program.

Most recently, Ford received awards for its communications programs and initiatives that supported the launch of the Ford Territory, the Ford RangeHER program, and the Henry Ford Awards. All three programs were launched and rolled out at the height of the pandemic in 2020 and 2021.

With its anniversary theme “Driving Our Future Together,” Ford Philippines looks ahead into the future by bringing more world-class Ford vehicles, introducing new innovations to elevate the ownership experience for its customers, and making a difference in the lives of its partner communities and beneficiaries.

“It has been a thrilling ride for Ford in the Philippines. We thank all our stakeholders who have been part of our journey for the last 25 years – our customers, dealers, employees, business partners, and communities. We appreciate the amount of support, partnership and collaboration you have extended through the years,” shared Breen.

“As we move forward to the years ahead, we will continue to go further and take the Ford ownership experience to greater heights.”

The Ford Island Conquest in Bonifacio High Street Amphitheater will be open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., with the test drive activities open until 6 p.m.

Customers can also check out the Ford Island Conquest display and test drive activities at the AutoFocus Pre-Christmas Test Drive Festival on November 17 to 20, 2022 at the SM Mall of Asia Concert Grounds from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Over P1 million worth of cash discounts and freebies are up for grabs for customers reserving their Ford vehicles at this event.
