111 years of the Oest Group - a success story from the Black Forest
Since 1915, the name Oest has stood for innovation, quality, and consistency. What Johann Georg Oest founded in the heart of the Black Forest as “Georg Oest & Cie.” (Factory for Technical Oils and Greases) is now an internationally successful group of companies with locations throughout Europe.
Over 111 years, vision, innovative strength, and the loyalty of our employees have laid the foundation for our success. From the first motorsport events of the post-war period to the co-founding of the German AVIA in 1952 to state-of-the-art technologies in the fields of lubricants, energy, mechanical engineering, and special fuels, the Oest Group has always demonstrated the courage to innovate.
What makes us special is our connection to our roots in Freudenstadt and our openness to the future. As a medium-sized family business, we uphold the values that Georg Oest exemplified: flexibility, customer focus, and the highest quality standards. In 2026, we will celebrate this special milestone together with our employees, customers, and business partners.
