Gosh Archie, do you think you could get Mike and Gloria jobs on the loading dock, too?

FORD BRINGS MORE FAMILY MEMBERS ON BOARD- Autoline Daily
The Ford Motor Company is adding two Ford family members to the board: Alexandra Ford English who is 33 years old and the daughter of Bill Ford, and Henry Ford III, who is 40 and the son of Edsel Ford. That generated some snarky comments online having family members run the company, but you have to remember that Ford is not the only car company where families play a big role. The Volkswagen Group is controlled by the Porsche and Piech families. BMW is controlled by the Quandts. The Agnellis hold a major interest in Stellantis, and so does the Peugeot family. The Toyoda and Suzuki families are still involved in the auto industry. The Chung family controls the Hyundai Group and Tata, which owns Jaguar Land Rover, is also family owned. Pity the poor Honda family. Founder Soichiro Honda banned family members from ever joining the company. And the Renault family would love to get back in the action, but they lost control after World War II because Louis Renault collaborated a little too much with the Nazis. Even so, can you think of any other major industry that has so much family control? We can’t think of one.
