Founders

In context

We hold 49 other automotive industry companies founded in the 1910s. 27 of them have closed, after a median of 24 years, and 22 have no closure recorded.

Counted across this directory, from founding and closing years in public records. Medians cover only companies whose closure is recorded; a company with no closure date may have quietly ceased without the record catching it.
