Social Responsibility and the "Blue Oval" Strategy
Through the global initiative “Build Up Together,” Ford Vietnam has implemented various support activities in disaster-affected areas such as Ha Tinh, Hue, and Cao Bang, while improving school facilities and providing traffic safety training. In Hai Phong, Ford actively coordinates with the city government on diplomatic activities and development strategies.
During a meeting with the Chairman of the Hai Phong People's Committee, Ford expressed its commitment to the "Blue Oval" strategy, aiming for CO2 reduction and electrification with key targets for 2030:
- Greenhouse Gas Reduction: Supporting Vietnam's goal to reduce 15.66 million tons of CO2 by 2030.
- Fuel Consumption Standards: Aiming for a fleet average fuel consumption of 5 liters/100km by 2030.

This recognition serves as a testament to the strong economic partnership between Vietnam and the United States, affirming Ford's role as a vital "bridge" in the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between the two nations.
