Shark Tank Egypt: Iron Mist Pitch That Sparked Investor Debate
Iron Mist, presented by Ahmed Rady on Shark Tank Egypt, became a major talking point after generating 6 million EGP in 3 months, sparking strong reactions from investors Beeshoy Azmy, Ayman Mamdouh, Abdullah Salam, Mohamed Farouk, and Ahmed Tarek.
The program Shark Tank Egypt 🦈 witnessed one of its most controversial episodes with the presentation of the project Iron Mist, introduced by young entrepreneur Ahmed Rady. The pitch was not just a traditional product idea, but a complete model combining innovation, digital marketing, and rapid market penetration in Egypt.
From the very first moment, Ahmed Rady captured attention with his calm confidence and simple presentation style. He introduced a product that solves one of the most annoying daily problems: ironing clothes 👔. Iron Mist is based on an innovative spray with a chemical formula that removes fabric wrinkles instantly when sprayed and the fabric is slightly stretched, giving a finish similar to professional steam ironing.
🔹 Ahmed Rady’s Future Vision for Iron Mist
The project does not stop at its current form; it aims for further development toward a more advanced stage:
“That a shirt becomes completely wrinkle-free from the first spray without any manual intervention ✨”
This reflects a long-term development vision rather than a short-term consumer product.
The project targets broad segments such as:
- Travelers ✈️
- Students 🎓
- Employees 👔
💰 The Pitch (Investment Offer)
Ahmed Rady entered the pitch confidently and requested:
2 million EGP for 10% of the company
This implies a valuation of 20 million EGP at an early stage, sparking strong debate among the Sharks regarding its realism.
