Filliers is a Benelux family business, distiller and distributor in spirits, wines and aperitifs of our own brand portfolio, as well as imported brands with the same exquisite objective. We want to preserve the know-how acquired in history and pass it on to the next generation in a professional structure with external directors and, if necessary, managers to safeguard the independence of the family business.
