Ford is expanding its global supply chain by shipping a Chinese-built Transit van to Europe, marking a shift in its production strategy amid changing market dynamics. The move comes as the automaker reports a significant decline in sales within China, where demand has been cut nearly in half. This reflects broader challenges in the world’s largest auto market, where economic pressures and shifting consumer preferences are reshaping industry operations. The decision highlights Ford’s efforts to balance production costs while maintaining supply chain flexibility across key regions.
