François Boilley
EXPORT MANAGER
Born in France, in the French Basque Country, I spent 30 years of my life abroad… Middle East, Paraguay, Spain, French Caribbean, New York and now in Hong-Kong.
After a “stopover” of 5 years in the 1990’s for my bachelor in International Trade in Paris, I left France again in 1996 to work abroad. I began my professional career in the world of fashion, working for a leading French Designer.
With an extended experience of more than 15 years in selling luxury goods, and after numerous journeys in Hong-Kong (my wife’s country), I fell in love with this incredible city and its culture.
Leaving behind the fashion world and New York, I wanted a new beginning in a new place, so I turned one of my passion, wine, into a new job.
I created an Import and distribution company selling to on trade and private accounts. In 2015 had the opportunity to sell the company and at this moment Christopher Vanpouille, whom I had known for over 5 years, offered me to joining the adventure of Very Fine Vinos .
Today I have the privilege to represent the wines of V&F in Asia/Pacific.
