Ross Millar

LIVESTOCK AGENT

Ross is the newest member of the team – Servicing the Taupo and South Waikato Regions

Ross grew up on a dry stock farm in Putaruru, and initially went dairy farming for two seasons.
Following family tradition, he then started a long and successful butchery career learning his trade in Hamilton working his way up to manage a retail shop for five years.
Business ownership was in his sights and so he decided to move to Tirau and start up Tirau Homekills, where he built up a significant client base Waikato wide.

Ten years later and with a family in tow, a move to Taupo saw him go back to retail butchery.
Purchasing a butcher shop in Rifle Range Road – Lakeside Meats was built up over 9 years, and was sold as a thriving business with a broad range of customers nationwide.

During his time at the shop he purchased a 60 hectare block of land to run beef cattle and Dairy grazers.
Having a good eye for cattle from his home kill days, dealing with livestock has become his passion.

Having joined Central Livestock recently, Ross’s background is perfectly aligned with his new role as an agent.

Ross is a natural organiser, reliable and well known in the district for his livestock knowledge – he welcomes your call.
