The Oppenheimer Group was a British holding, which though the Cadogan company had various pipe brands. It began in 1860 by Charles Oppenheimer and brothers Adolphe and David, together with Charles' brother-in-law Louis Adler, who established connections with GBD in 1870.
With business interests in Saint-Claude, Oppenheimer bought the Marechal Ruchon & Cie. factory, which from then on had two directors in London (Adolphe Oppenheimer and James Adler, son of Louis Adler) and two in Paris (August Marécel and Ferdinand Ruchon).

In 1920, the London factory took over A. Frankau, which produced BBB. Between the wars, Oppenheimer assumed the management of Ropp and used countless pipe factories around the world. In the 1970s, with the creation of Cadogan France, which had the GBD, Chacom, and Ropp brands, the last two being sold later, it separated from its English partner.
