Oriflame was founded on January 1, 1967, in Sweden by brothers Jonas af Jochnick and Robert af Jochnick, and their friend Bengt Hellsten.[2] The head office of Oriflame is located in Schaffhausen, Switzerland, with a registered office in Stockholm, Sweden.
IK Partners (Formerly Industri Kapital) acquired Oriflame through a public offering on the London Stock Exchange in October 1999. IK gradually reduced its stake, before final exit in March 2006.[3] Oriflame was traded on the Nasdaq Stockholm until being delisted on 17 July 2019.[4]
In 2023, Anna Malmhake succeeded Magnus Brännström as CEO & President after Brännström's 18-year tenure.[5]
In August 2022, Oriflames Marcus Fogel (Senior Director of Global Digital Services) worked alongside PayU CEO, Mario Shiliashki to work out a 21-day payment plan for buyers of Oriflames online products.[6]
In 2023, Oriflame signed a collaboration contract with Arnest Management LLC (Arnest) a perfume, cosmetic, and household products manufacturer from Russia.[7] Part of the contract was that Arnest would be acquiring Cetes Cosmetics Russia.[7]
