Billa Gill left India in the 1970s to pursue a better life. The first chapter of his journey began in the Middle East. He later moved to New Zealand where the rest of the Gill family were reunited.

In New Zealand, Billa was a man of many trades and skills, mostly self-taught - from taxi driving to running a cattle farm. In 2005, Billa left New Zealand to start a farming life in Australia. The first purchase he made was an almond property in Red Cliffs which covered 32 Acres (Billa had never actually seen an almond tree in his life, nor did he know how to farm it - but he was determined to learn!)

He saw his first season through the millennium drought which hit the farming industry hard and life suddenly became challenging. He was resourceful and inventive while weathering the seasons which brought both struggles and successful yields. Taking the wins when he could meant he always had a dream bigger than the last - resilience and willpower. This way of business rewarded him with the opportunities to buy additional surrounding farms in the local area. Which is now a tale of success behind the Gill family enterprise.
