History of 3MH Industries:
A history that has made an entire nation proud

History

Our History

What began as a simple idea on paper in 2016 has grown into one of the region’s most trusted and capable manufacturing success stories.

​

At the time, Egypt was undergoing one of the most challenging economic periods in its modern history. The year 2016 marked the beginning of deep and aggressive economic reforms—currency flotation, subsidy restructuring, inflationary pressure, and rapid shifts in market dynamics. For many businesses, this period meant uncertainty, contraction, or complete shutdown. Some scaled back operations. Others exited the market entirely. Many chose to migrate their investments abroad in search of stability.

​

3MH chose a different path.

​

In the midst of economic turbulence, when the odds were stacked against industrial growth, the vision for what would later become Red Fox Productions was born—not in a factory, not with massive capital, but as a dream driven by conviction, resilience, and belief in local manufacturing. While others waited for conditions to improve, 3MH began building—methodically, patiently, and relentlessly.

​

The early days were defined by hard decisions and long-term thinking. Every step was taken with a clear understanding that sustainable manufacturing is not built overnight. It requires discipline, quality obsession, and the courage to invest when confidence is scarce. During a time when uncertainty dominated the market, 3MH committed itself to one core principle: to build world-class manufacturing capabilities in Egypt that could compete regionally and globally.

​

From that initial concept on paper, the company moved into execution—establishing production foundations, sourcing advanced machinery, building technical expertise, and laying down strict quality and safety standards. Growth was not rushed. Instead, it was engineered.

​

As the Egyptian economy gradually stabilized and restructured, so did the company’s operations mature. Capacity expanded. Processes were refined. Product lines evolved to meet the highest international benchmarks. What once served a limited local demand began to scale—first across Egypt, then beyond its borders.

​

Today, 3MH Industries stands as a fully operational manufacturing powerhouse, fulfilling demand not only in Egypt, but also across China, Europe, and Africa. What started as a local ambition has become a globally connected production operation, supplying high-quality ignition and lighter solutions to diverse markets with varying regulatory, safety, and performance requirements.

 

This transformation did not happen by chance. It is the result of years of investment in:

  • Advanced manufacturing infrastructure

  • Skilled human capital and operational leadership

  • Quality assurance systems aligned with international standards

  • Continuous innovation in product design and functionality

 

Most importantly, it is the result of a mindset that refused to surrender to circumstances.

 

While many businesses of that era chose survival mode, 3MH chose creation mode. While others minimized risk, the company embraced calculated risk in pursuit of a larger vision. And while the market tested resilience at every turn, the company remained committed to its belief that Egyptian manufacturing could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with global producers.

 

Today, 3MH Industries is not merely a factory—it is a testament to what can be achieved when vision is paired with perseverance. It represents a journey from instability to scale, from uncertainty to export readiness, and from a dream sketched in 2016 to a multi-region manufacturing success story.

​

And this journey is far from over.
