About Vortella | Dragsbæk Oldendorf

Established in 1904 in Preußisch Oldendorf, Germany, Dragsbæk Oldendorf combines more than 120 years of expertise in specialty fats with a customer-centric approach and a strong focus on consistent quality, efficiency and flexibility.

Formerly known as Vortella and family-owned by Hamker until joining Dragsbæk in March 2026, the site has built a strong reputation among industrial customers, artisan bakeries and foodservice professionals.

Today, we benefit from a greater network of expertise, scale and excellence in execution, as part of the Dragsbæk Group, strengthening our position in the DACH region and neighbouring countries with a clear ambition to grow and develop the site to a significant supplier of yellow fats to the Central European market.
