The founder of Oliehoorn. More than 40 years ago, Klaas van Kalken laid the foundation for the traditional preparation of our sauces. Something we are very grateful to him for. What started with the sale of cooking oils and fats under the name ‘De Oliehoorn’, has grown into a successful family business 40 years later.

With the arrival of Wim Dijk, Oliehoorn has developed strongly in recent years. Through the horeca, Oliehoorn has grown significantly. The sector in which the Fritessaus, Curry, Mayonnaise, and Ketchup are extremely popular has been embraced by them. Wim has also managed to maintain the northern down-to-earthness within the company. Combined with quality and taste, this has ensured that Oliehoorn has become ‘world-famous’ among connoisseurs.

Arjan represents the 2nd generation of the family business. He introduces innovative visions, innovates, and invests in the future viability of the company. In line with Oliehoorn’s mission, he focuses on the question: how do we make it (responsibly) tastier? The ambition is to evoke special taste sensations and unique (taste) experiences. So, doing more than just preparing delicious food: Oliehoorn wants to create memorable moments of enjoyment!
