ZOILA HILLIER

All of the El Toro staff have deep agricultural roots and Zoila is no exception.

Growing up in a farming community in east-central Mexico, Zoila was continuously surrounded by an abundance of native fruits and vegetables and worked with livestock owned by her grandparents.

With entrepreneurial parents at the heart of her large family and always with a humanistic purpose at its core, Zoila also inherited the spirit and drive to promote and foster sustainable agriculture and to protect the people and the land.

Drawn to both animals and our Earth, Zoila pursued a degree in marine geology and further identified the connection between the land, animals, and our water sources. To this day, Zoila continues to advocate for the protection of both our land and oceans and is passionate about sustainable food sources that provide healthy options to all people while protecting and healing our environment. Embracing a love of all facets of our industry, Zoila feels herself being around animals, whether it is ocean diving surrounded by sea life, riding horses, or being surrounded by cows.

As the co-founder of El Toro, Zoila brings extensive background in business administration and import/export transactions. She holds a profound value of cultural and business relationships dealt with integrity and respect. Zoila has immersed herself in the cultures of the many countries she has visited and exported to and her aim is to continue to expand globally by providing our industry with the most exquisite bovine genetics that benefit our farms, Earth and sustainable food sources for a secure future.
