As for the secret of its success, the businessperson Ahmed Abu Hashima said that the secret is to insist on achieving success. His entry into the iron industry was not easy, but it was recognized that the profession for its owners, meaning that only those who had a family in this field could enter it. Those conditions, his father was a police officer and has nothing to do with trade or investment.

However, he did not despair of realizing his dream in this field until he reached what I am now. He also explained that he started his career before graduating from university. During his studies at Suez Canal University, he worked as an employee in a bank and continued for four years. Throughout this period, he had no connection to the iron trade. He began his relationship with this trade after obtaining a bachelor's degree in commerce, especially in late 1995. He remained for almost a year not receiving any profits from the iron trade, but suffered many losses. Nevertheless, insisted on continuing, until his name became famous at an early age in the iron trade market in most of Egypt's provinces.

After six years of trade, he set up an iron factory, and in 2009, he set up an Egyptian Iron Company building.

He pointed out that entrepreneurship is not easy but it is not difficult that some may think, and the elements of success indicated that success requires effort and self-defiance before challenging others. He noted that he works about 18 hours a day, and starts his day at 6 am. He was twenty years old and did not feel tired or weary at any moment to make sure that health and time were more important than money.

He also stressed that there is no successful person did not face failure and difficulties in his way, but the greater the difficulties in your way increased insistence on achieving the dream. If success was easy for all people reached what they wish, in this case did not have success taste or fun. Ambition and determination to complete the journey are able to overcome any obstacles whatever extent, directed his advice to students that yesterday is a past ended with all its successes and failures, but hope is in the day and the future and said that he still has many projects working to achieve and many of the investments and projects that seek.
