The start of a family enterprise

In Luxembourg, 1704, Philippe Muller acquired a millstone and milling rights, thus laying the foundations of the family history. Over time, this initiative sealed a legacy that has been handed down from generation to generation. Today, the world of milling boasts a family-run business that champions tradition and innovation. 

A history of transmission

The flour produced from wheat grown in the surrounding countryside initially met local needs. This is how the business began and developed, through traditional and precious know-how that is passed down by the family’s descendants. 

Growing expertise

The Muller family acquired the Dommeldange mill, marking a major step in the expansion of their business. However, in 1917, tragedy struck: the Dommeldange mill was destroyed by a devastating fire, putting an end to this prosperous phase in the family's history. 

Carrying on tradition

The Muller brothers – Edmond, Joseph, and Georges – joined forces to preserve the family heritage by purchasing the Kleinbettingen and Arlon mills, established in 1894. This acquisition was a sign of their determination to perpetuate the milling tradition and make their mark on the sector. The mills were the cornerstone of a forward-looking company. 

Diversification…

A new facility dedicated to the production of cattle feed under the Alcovit-Protector brand was inaugurated in Kleinbettingen. In 1966, however, another fire destroyed a large part of the plant. 

… and modernisation

Under the joint management of Edmond's son, Jean, and his cousin, Jacques, the company benefited from a major reinvestment in its facilities. Through modernisation, the company was able to expand its capacity to process both soft and durum wheat while maintaining its flour production. This was a major step forward for the company. All the more so as it also distinguished itself by becoming a pioneer in semolina production in Luxembourg. This opened new prospects for cereal processing in the country. 

Handed down from generation to generation

At the age of 33, Edmond Muller, Jean's son, joined the family business. Representing a new generation, he in turn committed himself to perpetuating the family heritage. He brought with him his energy and vision, contributing to the continuity and development of the Muller company in the milling sector. 

An ongoing environmental commitment 

A new program, Produit du terroir – Lëtzebuerger Miel, was launched to promote local, sustainable and responsible wheat-growing. It aimed to promote high-quality products. The initiative brought together Luxembourg's mills and agricultural players around a common goal: to grow authentic, healthy wheat through local, sustainable agriculture. 

State-of-the-art facilities that respect our milling traditions

A new flour mill was installed at the Kleinbettingen production site. It met the most stringent quality, hygiene and environmental standards. This state-of-the-art facility testified to the company's ongoing commitment to excellence. Our teams are committed to meeting the highest standards at every level of production. 

The family legacy continues

In 2010, Edmond's son Jean Muller took over the management of the family business. That same year, Moulins de Kleinbettingen introduced the Farin'Up brand with its easily resealable bags. This innovation testified to the company's open, innovative spirit. The aim: meet consumers' practical needs and facilitate their experience with the brand. A remarkable breakthrough in the milling industry. 

Tradition and know-how meet technology and hygiene standards

Moulins de Kleinbettingen earned IFS food certification, confirming the manufacture of safe, authentic, high-quality products. This recognition represented a testament to their commitment to food safety and consumer health. 

In the same year, the durum wheat mill was modernised. The company set out to remain at the cutting edge of technology to offer quality products. 

A further step towards protecting the environment

Moulins de Kleinbettingen have created Le Moulin 1704, an innovative brand that reaffirms their commitment to responsible and sustainable agriculture. Through premium-quality flours and pasta that supports the production of durum wheat in Luxembourg, Le Moulin 1704 highlights the close partnership with Luxembourg farmers and their know-how. This initiative illustrates the ambition of Les Moulins de Kleinbettingen to build a more sustainable supply chain, based on collaboration, quality and respect for the environment.

Sugar born from a committed partnership

Following the flours and pasta, the Le Moulin 1704 brand has expanded its range with a sugar developed through a close partnership with Marc Nicolay, a Luxembourg farmer and pioneer in sugar beet cultivation in Luxembourg.
 

Breakfast cereals to take care of yourself every morning

Since 1704, the Moulins de Kleinbettingen have cultivated a strong connection with the Luxembourg terroir. Continuing this long-standing commitment, the company launch in 2025 a range of breakfast cereals under the Le Moulin 1704 brand.

Hand-made using artisanal know-how and produced from oats grown in Luxembourg, these cereals offer consumers a new, high-quality alternative.
