General Motors Company Sales Preparation

General Motors (GM), the world's largest auto manufacturer, makes cars and trucks, with brands such as Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC. GM also builds cars through its GM Daewoo, Opel, Vauxhall, and Holden units. Financing activities are primarily conducted by General Motors Financial Company. Throughout its financial woes, GM has received billions of dollars in loans from the Canadian and US governments, negotiated concessions with labor unions, and jettisoned brands. The auto giant went through a six-week period of bankruptcy protection in 2009; it issued an initial public offering and returned to the stock market in 2010.
