In 1994 Ford designated the Russian market as a strategic one and began assessing the opinions for organizing production in Russia. However it was resolved to send up a “trial balloon” from neighboring Belarus. In the fall of 1997 Ford Union began assembling Ford Transit mini-buses in the Minsk Region. That production survived only three years. During the service period Ford Belarus managed to make only 3,600 vehicles, after which it had to stop production as it appeared to be losing money. Ford Union is currently operating in Minsk, but now only as a dealer.

By that time Ford already selected the site for the Russian plant, in Vsevolzhsk, 20 kilometers away from St. Petersburg. In the spring of 1999 Ford signed an investment agreement with the Russiangovernment and construction started in 2000. The plant arose from half-finished workshops which Ford had bought from Russky Diesel, a St. Petersburg-based company which went into liquidation. Within two years Ford spent $150 million to create a full-circuit production with the capacity of 25,000 cars per year. The production in Russia concentrated on the Ford Focus model.

In September 2001 Ford signed its first contract with a Russian supplier, Bor Glass Factory, from which the carmaker buys the glass for the doors of its Vsevolzhsk-assembled Focuses. Currently Ford has seven contracts with Russian manufacturers but they are making just minor parts, unable to materially influence the cost of the cars. Russia supplies rubber mats, splash aprons, brackets for the batteries, caps for the plus battery terminals, and small stamped parts of the car body. The car body, the running gear and the engine are supplied from the corporation’s European plants.
