About John Wilson

John Wilson gets his wealth from a stake in Reece Group, Australia's biggest bathroom and plumbing supplies chain.

Reece also provides HVAC-R (heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration) to commercial and residential customers.

The company, which has more than 800 outlets across Australia, New Zealand and the U.S, celebrated its centennial in 2020.

His brothers, Alan and Bruce, also have stakes in Reece and are billionaires.

The brothers' father, Leslie Wilson, was a plumber who joined the board of H.J. Reece, then a small listed plumbing supplies company in 1958.
