This is the perfect moment to pause and have a wonderful feast to commemorate and celebrate Mazda’s achievement in reaching their 40th million production of cars in Japan. This is indeed one of their many milestones and their loyal patrons celebrate with them in this momentous event.
They had their celebration in their headquarters in Hiroshima at the Ujina Plant No.2. The production of the Mazda Demio or Mazda2 was what marked the company’s milestone in the industry of automobile. A lot of executive officers were present during this commemorative ceremony and even Mazda’s Representative Director, Chairman of the Board, President and CEO Hisakazu Imaki graced the event with his presence.
Mazda had traveled a long way to achieve their 40th million production. They remain standing despite the growing number of competition and this is evident through their being in this industry for 75 years and nine months since October of 1931.
President and CEO Imaki delivered a speech saying, “Mazda was able to achieve 40 million units of cumulative production due to the great support of our customers. This milestone is also the result of the steadfast efforts of the many employees and people associated with Mazda who have been the cornerstone of our success throughout the company’s existence. Mazda’s appetite for embracing challenges and a spirited corporate culture drives us to develop new technologies and create new value. This is the reason why, of all the automakers around the world, Mazda is the only brand that produces rotary engine cars. Accomplishing 40 million units is another breakthrough on our road to even further growth. To maintain this track record of success going forward, Mazda will continue to provide our customers with cars that ‘look inviting to drive, are fun to drive, and make you want to drive them again’.”
This is indeed a very gratifying event for the company. It also made Mazda enthusiasts even more proud of the heritage of their precious set of wheels.
