Morphology

MFR = M + F + R

This is an initialism (letters stand for 'manufacturer'/'manufacturing'); the letters themselves do not convey the meaning and the expansion must be learned.

Etymology

MFR stands for manufacturer or manufacturing, so think of it as the short label for the company that 'makes' a product.
