Our story goes back to 1921, when 21-year-old Egon Oldendorff became a partner in a small Hamburg shipping business, renamed Lillienfeld & Oldendorff. The business endured the hardships of two world wars and several financial recessions, but in the 1950s a freight boom saw the fleet rebuilt rapidly.
From a local focus in the Baltic timber trade, Oldendorff grew into becoming one of the largest drybulk shipowners and operators in the world. At 21, he had just come of age. The company was renamed Lilienfeld & Oldendorff and at the end of the same year, Egon Oldendorff took control of the remaining shares.
