Ford Motor Company. Purchasing Department.

Hide Profile

Prior to Henry Ford II's post-World War II company reorganization, the purchasing division at Ford Motor Company was called the Purchasing Department. It was responsible for acquiring everything for the entire company, including raw materials, machinery, parts, and supplies, with yearly purchases in the hundreds of millions of dollars. After 1946, it became the Purchasing Division and was partly decentralized.
