No matter how you put it, Ferrari is one of the most popular and heavily sought after cars in the automobile industry. Nothing can best its magnificent aesthetic quality and ultra fast-paced performance. With all of its renown and achievement, there is nothing to doubt about Ferrari's standing as the best in the world. However, due to humble beginnings, no one ever knew, even the founder himself, that Ferrari will be as big as it is today.
Founded by Enzo Ferrari in 1929, Ferrari was first named Scuderia Ferrari. It was formed as an amateur driver's sponsor in Modena, Italy. Enzo raced numerous drivers and successfully helped train these drivers in Alfa Romeo sports cars for nine years. In 1938, Enzo was hired to head the motor racing department of Alfa Romeo. For two years, he developed new technologies in regards to cars and excelled at his new job. However, due to the forming of a Fascist government in the 1940's and the emergence of a World War, the Italian government absorbed Alfa Romeo. Fortunately, the division of Enzo was not affected because it was too small.
At Alfa Romeo, he excelled at his post and developed then new technologies for automobiles until 1940. The 1940's saw the rise of Benito Mussolini and his Fascist Government. Because of the need of support for the Axis Powers, the Italian Government sought the use of Alfa Romeo. But because Enzo Ferrari's division was very small, he was not at all affected by what has occurred.
The Tipo 815 was first actual Ferrari car ever made and debuted in 1940 at the Mille Miglia. However, it saw little competition because of the Second World War. The Ferrari Factory was then moved to Marenello, Italy in 1943. Unfortunately, due to the spoils of the Second World War, the factory was bombed during a raid in 1944 leaving the factory in ruins. With full determination, Enzo sought to rebuild the damaged factory. In 1946, right after the war has ceased, he did just that by rebuilding the factory and included in his repertoire a works-for-road car production. No one even expected that from then on, Ferrari would become so popular.
The first ever Ferrari racecar to be displayed among the public was the Tipo 815. It saw little competition. It was debuted to the public at the Mille Miglia in 1940. Three years later, the Ferrari factory was moved to Maranello, Italy. This was very unfortunate for Enzo for the factory was consequently destroyed by Allied bombing raids during the Second World War. But, Enzo, with renewed determination, sought to rebuild the factory and he did so after the war was over. This day would mark Ferrari's emergence as a top manufacturer of automobiles.
Enzo Ferrari was displeased by the fact that he was selling his automobiles. Even as the Ferrari brand cars grew and gained excellence in the world of automobiles. He was disappointed by the fact that most of his buyers only purchased the cars only for the prestige and not the overall performance.
Since then Ferrari continued to grow each year. It had never slowed down until today. Today, it garners about 1,688 Euros in annual revenues and employs almost 3,000 people every year.
Whoever thought that a racecar driver and his little division from Alfa Romeo could ever be the greatest automobile manufacturer of all time. From a racecar driver, Enzo Ferrari became the reluctant manufacturer and seller of the world's premier sports car company. - 42534
