Al-Ahram Aluminum Manufacturing Company took its first industrial steps in 1963 under the leadership of its late founder, Ahmed El-Ashmawy, who chose a name that reflects the product’s belonging to a country whose civilization extends back more than seven thousand years: Al-Ahram Cookware.

Over a history spanning more than half a century, the company has consistently introduced innovations in the field of household cookware—starting with polished aluminum cookware in 1963, followed by Teflon-coated cookware in 1977, and later stainless steel cookware in 1984. The clear and defined goal has always been to provide modern, healthy products using the most suitable technology to deliver a national product of high quality.

The wide variety of cookware models offered by Al-Ahram, along with its continuous development and the various quality systems it follows, have made its slogan “The Peak of Cookware in Egypt” a tangible reality felt by customers, not merely a marketing phrase.

Today, Al-Ahram is the oldest Egyptian cookware manufacturer with 100% Egyptian capital, offering high-quality Egyptian products made entirely with Egyptian expertise, minds, and hands. This is a source of pride for all employees and strengthens their sense of belonging and commitment to elevating Egyptian products to the position they deserve.

Al-Ahram is distinguished as the first Egyptian company to successfully introduce the required diversity in the field of household cookware in Egypt. Its production lines are divided into three sectors:

• Polished aluminum cookware with a purity level of 99.5%

• Granite-coated non-stick cookware

• Stainless steel cookware, with all products made of 18/10 stainless steel and carrying a 25-year warranty

Offering a national product amid fierce competition in a large market such as Egypt represents a major challenge for all company employees and places upon them the responsibility of raising Egypt’s name in the field of household cookware. This commitment has kept Al-Ahram in a leading position in the industry, as it is:

• The first to introduce the first polished aluminum cookware set

• The first to offer 100% locally produced non-stick coated cookware

• The first Egyptian cookware manufacturer to open a chain of its own retail stores selling only Al-Ahram products

• The first Egyptian cookware manufacturer to apply the international barcode system

• The first Egyptian cookware manufacturer to obtain the global Superbrands trademark

• The first Egyptian cookware manufacturer to obtain quality certifications (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 18001)

• The first Egyptian cookware manufacturer to receive the “Proudly Made in Egypt” label
