General Motors' vision is to create a world with Zero Crashes, Zero Emissions and Zero Congestion, and we have committed ourselves to leading the way toward this future. Today, we are in the midst of a transportation revolution, and we have the ambition, the talent and the technology to realize the safer, better and more sustainable world we want. As an open, inclusive company, we're also creating an environment where everyone feels welcomed and valued for who they are. One team, where all ideas are considered and heard, where everyone can contribute to their fullest potential, with a culture based in respect, integrity, accountability and equality. Our team brings wide-ranging perspectives and experiences to solving the complex transportation challenges of today and tomorrow. General Motors has been present in the region since 1926, established in Alexandria, before settling its Africa and Middle East headquarters in Dubai in the 1980s. Across these decades, our customers have engaged and interacted with iconic nameplates, including the Surburban, Tahoe, Camaro, Corvette, Escalade and Yukon. Our three core brands in the region, Chevrolet, Cadillac and GMC, bring exciting and diverse vehicles for every need. In addition to a diverse portfolio of 31 models, General Motors operates a parts and services business, ACDelco. GM wholly owns and operate a 27,000 sq.m facility, our Middle East Distribution Center (MEDC), which brings in parts from five continents around the globe and ships out to customers across Africa and the Middle East. This location joins our owned training center, located in Dubai, which helps prepare the next generation of vehicle and future mobility specialists.
