Ford Motor Company of New Zealand Limited is the New Zealand subsidiary of Ford. The Ford New Zealand assembly and distribution began in 1936, following the successful representation of Ford's New Zealand business by The Colonial Motor Company (CMC). Ford New Zealand was based in Seaview, Wellington. A second assembly plant was opened in Wiri, Auckland in 1973. Seaview was closed in 1988 and Wiri in 1997. Since then, all of the Ford New Zealand product offerings have been fully imported.
