The Family
Presently, Rorato Nominees trading as Billabong, produce grow 150ha of tomatoes producing approximately 15,000 tonnes of raw tomatoes per annum.
This is converted through the processing plant and overseen by family members, from farm to factory.
The Rorato family have a combined experience of 90 years, and the Italian family values that have been passed down from Sergio and Sylvia are the fundamentals within the company.
Sons Glenn and Allan, daughter Sandra along with her two children Jenna and Marcus, and daughter in-law Gemma, work together overseeing every facet of the business.
From seed to factory, quality control is assured, as we love what we do and only wish to provide the finest product on the market.
Billabong
The Rorato Family are proud to call their company and product, Billabong Produce, all Australian.
Set on the banks of the Billabong creek, our tomatoes are grown on Aussie soil and our business is 100% Australian owned, which means that the profits that are generated stay in our economy!
We love farming and are fiercely proud of the sauces that we produce.
Quality and taste are paramount and we aim to provide our customers with the best.
Our sauces are made from 100% fresh, Aussie tomatoes which are harvested on the very same day that they are processed, just like our grandparents made it.
Location
Jerilderie is located in Southern NSW also called the ‘Southern Riverina’.
Known as the food bowl of Australia, our location is well suited for tomato production due to the climate. We have an abundance of sun, availability of water and adequate rainfall.
Jerilderie is renowned for it’s agriculture and well known for the Billabong Creek, which is the longest creek in the world.
