Den Gamle Fabrik, which translates to 'The Old Factory,' is one of Denmark's most iconic and beloved marmalade brands. The brand's history dates back to 1834 when it was founded by J.L. Andersen in Copenhagen. It is characterized by its traditional open-pot boiling method, which preserves the texture and natural flavor of the fruit.
While originating as a family-owned Danish enterprise, the brand has undergone several ownership changes over the decades. Today, it is an integral part of the portfolio of the Norwegian conglomerate Orkla. Despite the international ownership, the brand maintains its strong Danish identity and continues to be produced in Denmark, primarily at its facilities in Randers. The jam focuses on high fruit content and craft heritage, making it a staple on Danish breakfast tables for nearly two centuries.
